  1. Bill Evans, Evans in England, 2019 on Resonance

    Another late sixties (December 1969) set from Evans, Eddie Gomez, and Marty Morell, recorded at Ronnie Scott's. (Live at Ronnie Scott's, released in 2020, came from recordings made in July of 1968). Great production and packaging. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvX6ZG0jAYA My copy—via private sale—is the Record Store Day 2019 2xLP deluxe edition, numbered and limited.

  2. Bill Evans - Behind the Dikes

    One of the yearly RSD Evans release—this one from 2021. Basically, two concerts from 1969 in the Netherlands with Evans (piano), Eddie Gomez (bass), and Marty Morell (drums). Nice included booklet with interviews and photos.

    Some unfortunate tape warble during the second concert, but good anyway!

  3. Bill Evans, Behind the Dikes: The 1969 Netherlands Recordings, 2021 on Elemental Music

    Zev Feldman of Resonance Records teamed up (as Producer, Liner Notes, and Researcher) with Elemental Music for yet another Bill Evans live set from the 1960s. These were often bootlegged but get official high quality treatment here.

    The recordings were made at KRO Studio I in Hilversum March 26th, 1969 and RAI Congrescentrum Amsterdam November 26th, 1969. Evans is joined by Eddie Gomez and Marty Morell. The release was mastered by Bernie Grundman and pressed by Standard Vinyl, with an insert booklet with photos, essays, and interviews. It’s a great package.

    My copy—via private sale—is the 3xLP 2021 deluxe edition, numbered, on 180 gram vinyl, which was issued for Record Store Day 2021.

  5. Bill Evans, Live at Art D’Lugoff’s Top Of the Gate, 2012 on Resonance

    Another Sunday, another Bill Evan’s live LP from Resonance. This one was recorded October 23, 1968 in Greenwich Village. This time Eddie Gomez and Marty Morell join Evans.

    This was recorded by Geoge Klabin himself, founder of the Rising Jazz Stars foundation and Resonance Records, as a 22 year old college student.

    My copy—via a private sale—is the 2019 Record Store Day limited edition numbered release.

  6. Bill Evans, At The Montreux Jazz Festival, 1968 on Verve

    Second 1968 Bill Evans performance I’ve posted this week, this one has the trio (again with Eddie Gomez and Jack DeJohnette) at Casino de Montreux in Switzerland, and was recorded by the technical department of Radio Suisse Romande.

    My copy (via a private sale) is the 2020 Analogue Productions reissue on two 45rpm 200g records, cut by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab. Sounds fantastic, though I can’t say I like having to change the platter twice as often.

  10. Bill Evans Trio - Haunted Heart: The Legendary Riverside Studio Recordings

    Much of this has, of course, been released before...many times. However, this time they've carefully reconstructed the original tapes using the Plangent Process...and they've never sounded better.

    The beautifully produced set includes everything recoded durring those sessions, including 17 never-before-released tracks.

    You like Evans? A must-have.

  11. My back is still strained, so no Tai Chi this morning. It's tea and socials with Bill then.

  12. The Bill Evans Trio - Moon Beams

    This 1962 release was from the first sessions recorded after LaFaro passed rather tragically. Retaining Paul Motian (drums), Chuck Israels (bass) replaced him.

    It's an interesting comparison with the LaFaro days (Debby/Vanguard/Explorations/Portrait), with Israels less out front, paired more with Motian great brushwork than with Evans.

    None of which to say it's not a classic.

  13. The Bill Evans Trio is on the list of bands I could not have actually seen but really would have liked to.

    To go back in time to see them at the Village Vanguard in 1961. 😘

  14. Bill Evans Trio - Explorations

    Hard to believe this, the 2nd studio LP of the Bill Evans Trio (Evans/LaFaro/Motian), is the last. Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debby would follow, and then LaFaro would be gone, and Motian would move on one record later.

    They're all in such sympathy with each other…it's a great LP.

    (Also, nice to have my other Beogram 4000 back from service - beolover.blogspot.com/2024/11/ - playing this, its re-inaugural LP.)

  15. Bill Evans (trio) in Norway

    RSD Black Friday release (also available at streaming services) of a 1970 concert by Evans, Eddie Gomez (bass) and Marty Newell (drums) in Kongsberg.

    A great, well-recorded (not perfect, but VVG) set, played quite energetically. Evans had recently switched to Methodone, and was more animated than usual, and he's ably accompanied by Gomez and Newell.

  16. Bill Evans, Spring Leaves, 1976 on Milestone

    2xLP release from 1976 which collects two previous Riverside releases: Portrait In Jazz (1960) and Explorations (1961). This one includes two takes on “Autumn Leaves” – one which appeared in Mono (Riverside 315) and one in Stereo (Riverside 1152). This also includes “The Boy Next Door” which was left off of Explorations originally.

    Milestone records was founded by Orrin Keepnews and Dick […]

  17. Bill Evans Trio - How my heart sings!

    This came out of the first session post-Vanguard/Debbie, after the death of Scott LaFaro, and you can see in the (great) liner notes how much this affected Evans.

    That said, this album of upbeat, swinging tunes belies that extratextual sadness to my ears, with Chuck Israels on Bass and Paul Motian on drums…except perhaps on Summertime, which seems perhaps a bit wistful in this rendition.

  18. Bill Evans Trio - Waltz for Debby

    Can’t say much that hasn’t already been said.

    This, though, is the new UHQR double-45 pressing, and it really is great sounding.

    My first copy was regrettably warped and had a periodic, every-rotation static issue (damn this hot weather - I assume it was in a boiling hot truck). Acoustic Sounds sent replacements which are perfect - kudos to them for standing behind their stuff.
