Peter’s “ECM Trio” is no more, but the next best thing to having been there might be to check out the DVD of the band titled “Peter Erskine Trio / Live at JazzBaltica.” The DVD includes a bonus tune (an encore, “The Music of My People” that was not included on the original VHS release), plus never-before-published photos of the Trio on tour in Europe. The concert, taped in 1993, was one of those nights you would wish to have been recorded … and it was!
The Trio played music from its first three ECM recordings, including:
- “Everybody’s Song But My Own” by Kenny Wheeler
- “Pure And Simple” by John Taylor
- “Touch Her Soft Lips And Part” by William Walton
- “Palle’s Headache” by Palle Danielsson
- “Evansong” by John Taylor
- “She Never Has A Window” by Vince Mendoza
- “On The Lake” by Peter Erskine
- “Clapperclowe” by John Taylor
