medjuck Posted August 17, 2009 Report Posted August 17, 2009 A couple of years ago I downloaded several Evans' live concerts from a website I believe no longer exists. One of them was labeled as "At the Village Gate" but there's no reference in either of the Gil Evans biographies of his playing there. Does anyone recall or know of an Evans band playing the Village Gate and when that might have been? ( The concert has several Hendrix compositions so it must be from after '76.) Quote

December 20, 1972 A Radio Broadcast: Live from Village Gate, Gil Evans Orchestra, Lonnie Liston . Smith and The Cosmic Echoes November 11, 1974 So maybe this is what you have: Gil Evans Orchestra - Village Gate 1974 live at Village Gate, New York 1974. Edited August 17, 2009 by marcello Quote
