jostber Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 This seems like pretty rare Evans: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002PHV1KE/?tag=mcd0-20 From the Product description: 2009 live archive release from the Jazz pianist containing two rare performances recorded in Northern Europe. The initial three tunes, appearing here on CD for the first time, were recorded during an informal visit to the house of Finnish composer Ilkka Kuusisto in Helsinki, Finland. A YouTube video from the Helsinki live concerts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxINpl1QvvY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 In Lund 1975, Evans performed with Monica Zetterlund (voc), and the rhythm section of Eddie Gomez (b), Eliot Zigmund (d). Not sure if this new release contains that portion or some trio material from the same time. The Helsinki show is with Gomez/Marty Morell (d), I've seen the footage, very nice!

brownie Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 The Lund portion was released previously on a WestWind boot... Same material is included on the Jazz Lips release. The three tunes that were taped at the home of Finnish composer Likka Kuusisto are in excellent sound on the CD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jostber Posted November 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 It seems like there's a DVD too: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bill-Evans-Trio-He...5015&sr=1-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 It must contain something else - that nice 3-tune gig at this private house runs for 29 minutes only. The DVD is said to be 71 minutes on Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzjet Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 It must contain something else - that nice 3-tune gig at this private house runs for 29 minutes only. The DVD is said to be 71 minutes on Amazon. Yes, the other part of the DVD is from a 1966 programme titled 'The Universal Mind of Bill Evans'.
