“This gargantuan package -- a ten-LP set now compressed into a chunky six-CD box -- once was derided as the ultimate ego trip, probably by many who didn't take the time to hear it all. You have to go back to Art Tatum's solo records for Norman Granz in the '50s to find another large single outpouring of solo jazz piano like this, all of it improvised on the wing before five Japanese audiences in Kyoto, Osaka, Nagoya, Tokyo, and Sapporo. Yet the miracle is how consistently good much of this giant box is.
In the opening Kyoto concert, Jarrett's gospel-driven muse is in full play, up to the level of his peak solo performances in Bremen and Koln, and the Osaka and Nagoya concerts have pockets of first-rate, often folk-like, even profound, lyrical ideas. The Tokyo concert takes a while to get in gear, but when Jarrett finally locks into one of his grooving vamps, he carries us along, and there is a memorably melodic encore. In Sapporo, Jarrett breaks from a nicely flowing pattern into a jumpy rhythm that reminds one of C&W guitar fingerpicking, and there's some exuberant barrelhouse stuff and outbreaks of dissonance in part two. Each concert is placed on a single CD, while the much briefer sixth disc is reserved for the encores from Nagoya, Tokyo, and Sapporo. While Sun Bear breaks little ground that his earlier solo piano albums had not already covered, it is nevertheless richly inventive within Jarrett's personal parameter of idioms. If price is not a barrier, the Jarrett devotee need not hesitate.”

“I think it was Patrick Moraz who called himself "an unconditional fan" of Keith Jarrett's music. Jarrett has certainly taken his listeners on an unconventional ride over the years, from more or less traditional jazz (albeit more masterfully realized than any vitually anyone else's) to straight classical interpretations, to avant-garde experimentation, with many, many stops in between. But it is as a solo piano improviser, alone on the stage, producing awe-inspiring suites of music in a spontaneous, unprepared explosion of creativity, for which Jarrett is most famous. His KOLN CONCERT and SOLO CONCERTS were seminal 70's jazz recordings, and remain timelessly popular today.
This recording, SUN BEAR CONCERTS, represents Keith at the height of his solo powers. An enormous 10-LP set, (now 6 CDs) this album sold for the unheard of [price] when it was released...and remained on the charts for months. While it was hailed as the work of genius in many circles, it also raised a few critics' eyebrows by reason of its sheer size, leading to accusations of ego-tripping. Jarrett claims that he and ECM founder Manfred Eicher came to the conclusion that the music worked best as a coordinated whole, and this released the entire package rather than mere excerpts. To me, it shows a great deal of courage to produce a collection that they knew would have limited commercial appeal because of its size and cost, out of conviction that the music would speak for itself.
It does, magnificently. This piece is truly an organic whole, with each concert contributing to the collective work in a way never surpassed in Jarrett's career. For anyone who is familiar with Keith through his shorter solo works, this album will produce immediate and lasting dividends. For the uninitiated this may be an acquired taste, but once it is fully understood, SUN BEAR CONCERTS will provide a lifetime of musical excitement and inspiration...”
