Jubiläum: JACK DEJOHNETTE 75

75 - 08/09/2017 - Happy Birthday!


Jack, who first recorded for ECM in 1971, has played more sessions for the label than any other musician, as band-leader, co-leader and sideman par excellence. He has always been the most creative of drummers, whether seeking out new musical territory or playing within jazz’s great traditions. The range of his work is vast: playing standards with Keith Jarrett and Gary Peacock, leading New Directions and Special Edition, powering the Gateway trio, playing wide-open improvising with John Surman, reconvening with AACM friends Muhal Richard Abrams, Roscoe Mitchell and Henry Threadgill, exploring fresh directions with Ravi Coltrane and Mathew Garrison… the list goes on.
In celebration of Jack’s birthday we are offering a broad cross section of his work on ECM at special prices.

Best wishes,
ECM Records

In Movement
Jack DeJohnette, Ravi Coltrane, Matthew Garrison


There is a lot of history concentrated in Jack DeJohnette’s adventurous new trio.
