Keith Jarrett Trio For miles

bye Bye blackbird ... that's the title of the album performed by Keith Jarrett wit jack de johnette and gary peacock
Recorded within two weeks of Miles Davis's death, this album is a direct emotional response to the trumpeter's passing from a long-established trio of his former sidemen: pianist Keith Jarrett, bassistGary Peacock, and drummer Jack DeJohnette. "For Miles," a collective improvisation that lasts for over 18 minutes, is both the literal and figurative centerpiece of the album, a performance that seems to struggle toward a profound and somber expression." Jarrett's playing is tightly focused, whether laconic and melodic or swinging with gusto, but it's very much a trio of equals, with DeJohnette offering constantly shifting accents and cymbal color and Peacock providing an original melodic voice as well as fluid and authoritative propulsion.
