Places (Jan Garbarek album)

Places is an album by Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek, recorded in December 1977 and released on ECM the following year. The quartet features pianist John Taylor, guitarist Bill Connors, and drummer Jack DeJohnette.

Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow states, "A fairly sleepy ECM date ... the music has plenty of space, is introspective, and often emphasizes long tones."

Awarding the album four stars out of four, The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings describes it as “a small masterpiece, dominated by one long track.”
