Keith Jarrett, Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette are celebrating the trio’s 25th anniversary with a short tour and the reissue of two out-of-print concert DVDs. ECM Records has just re-released Standards I and II, which were previously available as separate VHS and DVDs, in a single package. The shows were taped in Tokyo in February 1985 and October 1986. The 1985 gig leans toward the softer side of the trio on songs such as "Stella by Starlight" and "God Bless the Child," while the 1986 show is an all-standards set featuring tracks like "Georgia on My Mind," "When You Wish Upon a Star" and "On Green Dolphin Street."

The trio's first three ECM Records releases were Standards Vol. 1 and 2, and Changes. These recordings from the original New York trio session were re-released by ECM as a special 3-CD box set in January this year also in celebration of the trio’s 25th Anniversary. It includes all new liner notes, plus a gallery of trio photos taken over the past 25 years.
