BREAKING NEWS!
There have been a rumor that Keith Jarrett had once worked with the American nu metal band KORN, but there has been no evidence, either pictures or recordings.
Manfred Eicher successfully located this rarest recording of the concert and decided to release it from ECM! I just received a sample disc from the Japanese distributor of the label (see the image below).
Incidentally, the concert was recorded during the earliest period of KORN, which is suggested by the band’s logo: instead of the current one with the reversed “R”, it is spelled “KÖRN”. The use of the “O Umlaut (double-dotted O)” reveals the band/s respect for the preceding great metal bands Mötley Crüe and Motörhead.
