Esbjorn Svensson Trio E.s.t. Live In Gothenburg (Clear)

A concert for the ages: e.s.t. live in Gothenburg is a potent reminder of what the jazz piano world has been missing since the poetic master Svensson died back in 2008. [...] An enthralling and pristine recording that serves both as a confirmation of reputation and a fine introduction to e.s.t.'s distinctive place in the annals of the piano trio. [...] As heard here, 18 years after the performed fact, this trio has achieved an undeniable and lasting relevancy Downbeat. In this 2001 recording, e.s.t. played tracks from the albums From Gagarin´s Point of View and Good Morning Susie Soho. There is even one track, Bowling, which has never been released on CD before. e.s.t. live in Gothenburg documents the enduring magic of this band. We find originality, strength and playfulness coalescing together in an ideal way here.
