At the Deer Head Inn is a live album by American jazz pianist Keith Jarrett recorded at the Deer Head Inn jazz club on September 16, 1992 and released by ECM in April 1994. The trio features rhythm section Gary Peacock and Paul Motian.[1]
Background
The album was recorded at a venue where Jarrett performed very early in his career,[4] and was the first to feature Motian since the 1976 session that yielded Byablue and Bop-Be, the final recordings of Jarrett's American Quartet, collected on the 1992 compilation Silence.[5][6][7]

| The Penguin Guide to Jazz |  [7] |
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars and states: "The inventive interpretations give listeners plenty of surprises and variety, making this a very enjoyable outing".[4]
The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote: "Motian brings a lighter and more flowing pulse to the music than DeJohnette... 'Bye Bye Blackbird'... glides along without wires or other obvious support for more than ten minutes, a beautiful airborne performance... As so often, Peacock is more forceful and less complex out of the studio... It seems unlikely that Jarrett will ever need to go back to bar-room gigs, but here he's demonstrated his ability to work a small audience with powerful, unpretentious jazz."[7]
