Circle – Paris Concert (1972/2017) [Official Digital Download 24bit/192kHz]

Paris Concert is a live album by the short-lived jazz group Circle, which consisted of saxophonist Anthony Braxton, pianist Chick Corea, bassist David Holland and drummer Barry Altschul, recorded in 1971 and released on the ECM label. While Corea would dissolve the group shortly after the LP’s release, it remains a fascinating document of the pianist during a transitional period of his career.

Of all of the recordings from the short-lived avant-garde quartet Circle, this double-LP is the most rewarding. Cut live in Paris, this set features pianist Chick Corea, the reeds of Anthony Braxton, bassist Dave Holland, and drummer Barry Altschul playing a wide variety of fairly free explorations. Highlights include their reinterpretation of the standard “There Is No Greater Love,” the playful “Toy Room – Q & A,” Braxton’s “73 Degrees Kelvin,” and “Nefertiti.” The music is often quite abstract but generally colorful and innovative; Chick Corea would soon break up the band for other musical adventures, but this set remains one of the high points of his productive career. ~~ AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow
