"The music has the dash and the unabashed lyricism of Keith Jarrett's best work," wrote Stereophile in a rave review of the first selection from the intimate Deer Head Inn live recording, capturing Jarrett's spontaneous, and in retrospect historic, return to the Pennsylvanian venue of his early years, alongside Gary Peacock (bass) and Paul Motian (drums). The second release, titled The Old Country and released 30 years after the first volume in 2024, was met with equal acclaim - The Guardian's John Fordham called it, "song-based jazz-imagining at its best." Keith Jarrett: "I think you can hear on this tape what jazz is all about." Here, both albums are combined and released on vinyl for the very first time. The Complete Recordings are spread across 4 LPs in two tip-on gatefold jackets and framed by a deluxe slipcase. There won't be a second print-run of this boxset, limiting it strictly to this edition.
