I wish Bill Evans had recorded more with PJJ.

👍

I have a special Attachment to this recording. It was one of the very first albums I bought back many many decades ago.

Also the tune on this album "Crazy Rhythm" features one of my alltime favorite solos by Stan Getz!!!!!

Gerhard, my deepest condolences. It's a very sad time after this ... My wife died of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) eight years ago. I had chosen Vijay Iyer's piano version of Billy Strayhorn's "Blood Count" for the memorial service.

Oh, I feel sorry for you too. In our case, Serena told me years ago, that in case she might die before me, I must promise to take a stage piano to the incinerary services to play "When I fall in Love (I know it will be forever). Last year, after I recorded "Waltz for Serena" which you sure know, she added this also to the wish list. 

So I played them two tunes before she was incinerated.

Gheorghe - I missed that your wife had died. I am so sorry to hear this. 47 is too soon to be taken away.

Thank you so much ! Yeah, much too soon and she looked so beautiful, like a model. Even when she was dead she looked like if she would sleep.
