Notes (album)

Notes is an album by Canadian jazz pianist Paul Bley and American drummer Paul Motian, recorded in 1987 and released on the Italian Soul Note label.

[1] The AllMusic review by Eugene Chadbourne stated that "the tracks basically having the flatness and relative lack of detail of the album's cover illustration.

These performances have a lingering quality, however, certain moments eventually acquiring magic like illuminations, even though it is all mere residue under the fingers of players who seemingly can create beauty in their sleep.

"[2] The Penguin Guide to Jazz said "Their interplay in the most demanding of improvisational settings is intuitive and perfectly weighted".
