 Notes  
     The reason to mention the particulars of this document of informal sessions
     is because Keith Jarrett went to the trouble of doing so in his liner
     notes: they came about in the aftermath of he and Charlie Haden playing
     together during Ramblin' Boy, a documentary film about Haden. The duo, who
     hadn't played together in over 30 years, got along famously and decided to
     do some further recording in Jarrett's Cavelight home studio without an end
     result in mind. The tapes sat - though were discussed often - for three
     years before a decision was made to release some of them.
     Jasmine is a collection of love songs; most are standards played by two
     stellar improvisers. Picking out highlights on this eight-song,
     hour-longset is difficult because the dry warmth of these performances is
     multiplied by deeply intuitive listening and the near symbiotic, telepathic
     nature of the playing. The entire proceeding flows seamlessly. The depth of
     emotion in Peggy Lee's and Victor Young's "Where Can I Go Without You"
     opens the world of the bereft lover - and Haden's solo seems to make
     her/him speak. Jarrett's intro to "I'm Gonna Laugh You Right Out of My
     Life," by Cy Coleman and Joseph McCarthy, reveals in its lyric just how
     woefully ironic this tune is.
     The loss and reverie steeped in false bravado are expressed in Jarrett's
     arpeggios and underscored by Haden's emphasis on single notes during the
     changes and a deep woody tone he gets in the combination of skeletal
     flourishes during Jarrett's solo. On the surface it might seem that the
     inclusion of Joe Sample's "One Day I'll Fly Away" is an odd inclusion; yet
     it acts on some level as the hinge piece for the set. Its simplicity and
     sparseness are offset by the profound lyricism Jarrett imbues it with.
     Haden asserts, quietly of course, that the complex emotions in the tune go
     beyond any language - other than music's -- to express. After a
     devastatingly sad reading Gordon Jenkins' "Goodbye" with Jarrett at his
     most poignant and clean, a brief reading of Jerome Kern's and Oscar
     Hammerstein's "Don't Ever Leave Me" closes the set. The way it's played,
     this tune is not a plea, but a poetically uttered assertion between lovers.
     Jasmine is, ultimately, jazz distilled to its most essential; it not only
     expresses emotion and beauty, but discovers them in every moment of its
     performance.
