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.

Bill Evans, Live at Ronnie Scott’s, 2020 on Resonance

Recorded back in July of 1968, this is Evans with Eddie Gomez and Jack DeJohnette at London’s landmark Ronnie Scott’s club. Resonance Records itself is part of the non-profit Rising Jazz Stars Foundation.

The trio in this form had a month long residency in 1968 at the club. The recording here was made by DeJohnette himself, so the sound quality varies a bit from the normal professional recordings of the era, but it is worth it for the playing here. Essentially like a quality “audience” bootleg pressed professionally to vinyl.

My copy – via a private sale – is the 2xLP Record Store Day 2020 edition, in mono, cut by Bernie Grundman and pressed at RTI. It includes an 11 page booklet with tributes and interviews (including DeJohnette and Gomez, as well as Chevy Chase).

Standard, Vol. 1

Keith Jarrett - piano
Gary Peacock - double bass
Jack DeJohnette - drums

“La musica può trasformarti e stimolare la tua sensazione di essere un tutt'uno con tutto, cosa che la maggior parte delle volte siamo, anche se non ne siamo consapevoli"

Jack DeJohnette (August 9, 1942 - October 26, 2025)

In Memoriam: Jack DeJohnette, 1942–2025

“When I play, I go into an altered state, a different headspace. I plug into my higher self, into the cosmic library of ideas.”

Miles Davis - Jack Johnson

I've read multiple conflicting accounts of how this album came together. Despite it being two tracks (Side A - Right Off; Side B - Yesternow), it was edited together by Teo Macero from a bunch of separate sessions.

But whatever the truth is, the band absolutely cooks. Probably my favorite "Electric Miles" album.

New #review today: "Drums of Compassion represents a summing-up of sorts for #MichaelShrieve, presenting the veteran drummer along with a host of the other outstanding musicians he’s worked with since his debut in Santana. It is far from a showcase for his own playing, however, handing the spotlight over to #AirtoMoreira, #ZakirHussain, #JeffGreinke, #JackDeJohnette, #BabatundeOlatunji, #Skerik, #PeteLockett, #AmonTobin, #TreyGunn, and many others." #ExposeOnline http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/michael-shrieve-drums-of-compassion-2.html

#Reingehört
Kenny Wheeler - GNU HIGH
Fast 50 Jahre ist diese großartige Aufnahme alt und an keiner Ecke angestaubt… Die Atmosphäre ist so dicht und lebendig - man meint, eine Live-Aufnahme zu hören und vermisst den Applaus.
