Bill Evans Trio - Everybody Digs Bill Evans

The legend of Bill Evans really begins with this album, his second. The pianist had just spent most of 1958 as part of one of the major units in jazz history: the Miles Davis sextet that also featured John Coltrane and Cannonball Addererley. His fellow musicians already knew his worth (the album title was almost literally accurate, and the four endorsements on the cover, which embarrassed Bill, could easily have been greatly mulitplied); with this record, the jazz public began to follow thier lead. Aided y Sam Jones and Philly JOe Jones. Evans set down some of his most swinging trio sides, but the session would be removable if it had only yielded the remarkable and haunting solo improvisation called "Peace Piece."

Awful posted on 03/23/2021 1 Stars Reviewer: Peter I did not purchase this from AS, but I did find one at my LRS, and all I can say is that it's not good. Lots of groove gravel, squeaks and pops galore. Not what I had hoped for. Maybe it's luck of the draw on this version but mine is getting returned.

Great music - just OK vinyl posted on 01/30/2007 4 Stars One of the great jazz piano records by Bill Evans, this pressing may suffer from some wow, which detracts from listening pleasure. Probably worth going for the 45rpm version, or for a 180g edition - if there is one.
