I grew up listening to ECM recordings, mostly everything I could find from Keith Jarrett, then John Abercrombie, Jan Garbarek, Lester Bowie, Art Ensemble of Chicago. I was stunned the first time I listened to this music - real instruments, the clarity, the honesty. In world of over produced electronic "imitation music," the art Mr. Eicher offers the world has enhanced my life and made it happier.
