I don't think I need to explain this thread too much...your number 1 favorite live Jazz record...and only one.

I'll have to get back to this once I've slept, but I will post my selection eventually...

Well, I think I finally decided on "The Koln Concert" by Keith Jarrett...although Cecil Taylor's Silent Tongues and Bill Evans' Sunday @ The Village Vanguard would also be major picks...

...oh hell, we'll just make that the top 3 for me

You want me to count them all? Damn, satch, I don't have that much time, lol...

...but really, I obviously haven't heard as many as you, but I'd say at least a few hundred...

...and as I play keyboards (although nowhere near as well as the artists mentioned, obviously), I'm just predisposed towards selecting live piano trio/solo dates...
