Short review from From koinumamusic.com

“Solo concert at Budokan in 1978 was the one of the good examples of those challenges. At that time, it was reckless of Koinuma to have promoted a concert of a jazz player, in itself at the biggest venue known by the appearances of pop and rock music superstar in the world, however, considering that there had been no problems about acoustics before at the recital of a noted pianist of classic music, Koinuma had sounded Mr. Jarrett on this project, and he had taken a decisive step to play at Budokan.

Usually, a stage will be set at the one of the four corners of the colosseum style hall (10,000 people admitted), but Koinuma set up a stage at the center of the hall and there had never been such a concert that 12,000 audience had been listening to his acoustic sound, surrounding Keith Jarrett. At the moment a dead silence fell over the audience, just before the opening of the concert, the air-conditioner of the venue discovered to be felt as a noise, had been immediately stopped. The audience had been satisfied with his performance in the genuine silence in the middle of cold winter.”

1976年11月の日本ツアーで行った8公演すべてを録音し、後に10枚組レコード『サンベア・コンサート』としてリリースしたキース。
以後ソロを封印していた彼が、1978年12月12日、日本のファンのために一夜限りのコンサートをジャズ演奏家としては当時会場としては異例の日本武道館で行いました。
この演奏は、翌1979年に2週に分けてFM-TOKYO「ゴールデン・ライブ・ステージ」で余すことなく放送されています。
既にほかの人が公開していますが、途中音が小さくなりノイズが混じる症状が出ていたので、私が録音した当時のカセットを使い作りました。
何度聞き返しても惚れ惚れする演奏です。

Keith Jarret

Real Name: Keith Daniel Jarrett

Profile: American jazz pianist and composer, born 8 May 1945 in Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA. Jarrett has played the piano from the age of three until 2018, when he suffered two strokes and was left partially paralyzed.


He has own music publishing house – Cavelight Music.
He is the older brother of the pianist and composer Chris Jarrett.

Jarrett started his career with Art Blakey, moving on to play with Charles Lloyd and Miles Davis. Since the early 1970s he has enjoyed a great deal of success as a group leader and a solo performer in jazz, jazz fusion, and classical music. His improvisations draw from the traditions of jazz and other genres, especially Western classical music, gospel, blues, and ethnic folk music.

In 2003 Jarrett received the Polar Music Prize, the first recipient of both the contemporary and classical musician prizes,and in 2004 he received the Léonie Sonning Music Prize. His album The Köln Concert (1975) became the best-selling piano recording in history.

In 2008 he was inducted into the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame in the magazine’s 73rd Annual Readers’ Poll.

Jarrett has been unable to perform since suffering a stroke in February 2018, and a second stroke in May 2018, which left him partially paralyzed and unable to play with his left hand.

Keith who recorded all eight performances performed in the Japanese tour of November 1976 and released as a 10-disc set “San Bear Concert” later. Since then, he had sealed solo, on December 12, 1978, he performed a night-long concert for Japanese fans as a jazz musician at an unusual Nippon Budokan as a venue at that time. This performance is fully broadcast on February 4, 1979 FM – TOKYO ‘Golden Live Stage’. Although other people have already released it, the symptoms that the middle sound is small and the noise is mixed have come out, so I rebuilt using the cassette of the time I recorded. It is a performance that I am fond of love even if I listen to it again. 収録曲 1.Improvisation 1 (00:00) 2.Improvisation 2 (43:40) 3.My Song (1:14:50)
