Posted 7 Dec 2018 (edited) To me, Bill Evans' recordings for Verve are very "hit-or-miss," especially compared to the music he released on Riverside and Fantasy. That said, I think these two LPs are BE's strongest Verve releases -- and it's Shelly Manne's presence that lifts them. 20 minutes ago, Tom 1960 said: Beautiful swan song.

Some of the 80s production gets in the way but the songs are pretty strong. Can't remember what I thought of it on release. I do remember the gig on the tour was great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 8 Dec 2018 (edited) Someone on the BN Board or here recommended this to me when I was looking for some Hilton Jefferson. (Joe comes to mind, but I'm not certain who it was.) Anyway, whoever it was, you have my thanks every time I play this wonderful recording. Edited 8 Dec 2018 by paul secor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
