Treasure Island is the second album on the Impulse! label by jazz pianist Keith Jarrett. Originally released in 1974, it features performances by Jarrett, Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, Paul Motian, and Danny Johnson.

In 2009, the album was reissued in a digipak case by Verve Music Group/Universal Music Group.

Reception

In his AllMusic review, Thom Jurek awarded the album 4.5 stars and said: "This is a terrific sendoff to a very fertile, creative period and begs the question [sic] as to what else may have happened had this band been able to explore their unique, fully communal sound together for more than a pair of albums."[1]
