1	Time and Time Again (2007) more music like this by Paul Motian/Bill Frisell/Joe Lovano In 2005, Paul Motian returned to ECM as a leader after a long hiatus. He reassembled his partnership with guitarist Bill Frisell and saxophonist Joe Lovano. The album they released, I Have the Room Above Her, was ecstatically reviewed across the globe. The trio members, who hadn't recorded together as such since 1984, showed a tremendous empathy ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
2	I Have the Room Above Her (2005) more music like this by Paul Motian/Bill Frisell/Joe Lovano The sum total of the nuanced, elliptical lyricism at the heart of Paul Motian's compositional method can be heard in the opening seconds of "Osmosis Part III," the first track from I Have the Room Above Her. Recorded for ECM -- with producer Manfred Eicher, guitarist Bill Frisell and saxophonist Joe Lovano -- this date is Motian's first as a ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
3	Garden of Eden (2006) more music like this by Paul Motian Though recorded in 2004, the release of Garden of Eden marks the year in which drummer, composer, and bandleader Paul Motian turned 75. The Paul Motian Band is structured after his Electric Bebop Band from the 1990s. The group's unique approach to bebop is here -- particularly in the bookends of the set with Charles Mingus' "Pithecanthropus ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
4	Bill Frisell, Ron Carter, Paul Motian (2006) more music like this by Bill Frisell/Ron Carter/Paul Motian It's hard to imagine that Bill Frisell at 55 is the youngster of this group. But he is by a long shot. Not that it matters in terms of musicality; rather, it's that younger modernism and its involvement with different musical genres that make Frisell such a welcome foil for the likes of two heavyweights like Paul Motian and Ron Carter. To say that ... see all copies from $16.14! new only from $16.14!
5	Sound of Love (1998) more music like this by Paul Motian/Bill Frisell/Joe Lovano This live 1995 recording from New York's Village Vanguard club features drummer Paul Motian, guitarist Bill Frisell, and tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano turning in a stellar set of jazz covers and Motian originals (this is the same trio the drummer led in the late '80s and recorded high-profile tributes to Bill Evans, Thelonious Monk, and Tin Pan ... see all copies from $15.01! new only from $15.01!
6	New York Trio Recordings, Vol. 2: Voices (2007) more music like this by Marc Copland/Gary Peacock/Paul Motian New York Trio Recordings, Vol. 2: Voices is a sequel to Marc Copland's March 2006 date New York Trio Recordings, Vol. 1: Modinha, but with a slightly different lineup. Copland is still on acoustic piano, and Gary Peacock is still on upright bass; however, the drummer on Voices (which was recorded three months after Modinha) is Paul Motian instead ... see all copies from $14.07! new only from $14.07!

8	Goodbye (2005) more music like this by Bobo Stenson/Anders Jormin/Paul Motian Goodbye is one of, if not the most expansive and diverse collections pianist Bobo Stenson has ever released. This is his first ECM release in five years. Paul Motian takes over the drum chair vacated by Jon Christensen, and his shimmering, deep listening and subtlety add to the excellence and sheer quiet beauty of this recording. Goodbye is more ... see all copies from $11.23!
9	Trio I Sm (1993) more music like this by Paul Motian Jazz drummer Paul Motian has been lauded by critics for both his subtle syncopations and uniquely asymmetrical sense of time. On this 1993 release, Trioism, Motian's musical attributes are complemented by the cockeyed guitar styling of Bill Frisell and the breathy tones of saxmen Joe Lovano and Dewey Redman. With "It Should Have Happened a Long ... see all copies from $74.99!
10	Holiday for Strings (2002) more music like this by Paul Motian & the Electric Bebop Band Drummer Paul Motian and his Electric Bebop Band surge forward with this 2002 release, featuring the lineup witnessed on the previous EBBB release, Europe. And while the title might allude to a program consisting of soft string arrangements, the sextet provides its indelible touch of class to a series of generally moving works -- regardless of ... see all copies from $6.55! new only from $15.01!
11 view cover	Reincarnation of a Love Bird, Vol. 71-81 (1994) more music like this by Paul Motian & the Electric Bebop Band The Electric Bebop Band is a very different ensemble on its second album than it was on the first. Apart from drummer and bandleader Paul Motian, the only member remaining from the debut is guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel; the place of his erstwhile counterpart Brad Schoeppach has been taken by Wolfgang Muthspiel, while saxman Joshua Redman has been ... see all copies from $13.89! new only from $13.89!
12 view cover	Monk in Motian (1988) more music like this by Paul Motian This is an utterly fascinating tribute to the music of Thelonious Monk. Most of the selections feature the unusual trio of tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano, guitarist Bill Frisell (who with his wide range of original sounds is really a one-band band), and drummer Paul Motian. Tenor saxophonist Dewey Redman and pianist Geri Allen are guests on two ... see all copies from $10.33! new only from $10.33!

23 view cover	Flight of the Bluejay (1998) more music like this by Paul Motian & the Electric Bebop Band During the 20 years that preceded this set, Paul Motian had led some of the most intriguing jazz groups around.

24 view cover	Europe (2001) more music like this by Paul Motian & the Electric Bebop Band Bop snobs can be quite rigid and dogmatic when it comes to jazz drumming; if you aren't playing like Philly Joe Jones or Ed Cobb circa 1957, they'll insist that you're a heretic who is in desperate need of repentance. But Paul Motian has never been taken in by such dogma; the veteran drummer likes to keep his options open, and he hasn't been ... see all copies from $15.01! new only from $15.01!
