Forty years published Jarrett still at ECM and his joy of playing and Experimientieren continues unabated despite health setbacks. "Rio" is already on the cover design warm and appealing, and the 15 tracks of the double CD have it in them. As forty years ago improvises the master, but he is become softer, more supple and lyrical. Keith Jarrett's musical oeuvre matures and becomes rounded.
For me, "Rio" an album that slithers among the "must have".
