Bill Evans past away. What a loss. I'm listening to the "Complete Bill Evans on Verve" On disc 3.

A useless note here:

I happened to see Bill Evans at his last gig at Fat Tuesday. Joe La Barbera is a old friend, so I spent the entire evening there talking and listening. I remember Michel Legrand in the audience, front and center.

Evens looked very bad and had to be helped, with a person on each arm, getting into the room.

He played great, though. I believe there is a private recording of at least one set.

Yes, but it doesn't have very good sound.

Yes, I'm not complaining.

Exactly the same situation at Ronnie Scott's a month or so before. Once he got to the piano he was a man on a mission.

No Michel Legrand but at the first of the two Scotts gigs I caught, was seated next to (a very silent) Art Garfunkel.
