BILL EVANS
THE SIDEMAN YEARS | |
Description:
Bill Evans has been one of the most infleuntal pianists if not one of the most influential musicians in the history of modern jazz. Everybody who likes piano music enjoys listening to Bill's playing, and that is why he is so big today, mor than 25 years after he died in 1980. When in 1956 he joined the quartet of the acclaimed clarinetist Tony Scott, Bill's playing caused much talk among musicians and big things were predicted for him. In these early recordings as a sideman, Bill Evans demonstrates, with apparent effortlessness and without straining for gimmicks, what a strong and intelligent improviser he already was in those early years. |
