01. Bill Evans - Jazzhouse (1969)

Part of a 5-album Bill Evans SHM-CD cardboard sleeve reissue series featuring
albums I Will Say Goodbye, Alone (Again), Intuition, Re: Person I Knew, and
Jazzhouse. This set is one of two albums (both reissued on CD) recorded by the
Bill Evans Trio (with bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Marty Morell) at
Copenhagens Montmartre on one night in 1969 but not released initially until the
late 80s. Evans sounds relaxed and swinging playing his usual repertoire. All of
the songs (mostly standards) have been recorded by Evans at other times but the
pianists many fans certainly will not mind hearing these alternate versions of
such tunes as How Deep Is the Ocean, How My Heart Sings, Sleepin Bee and a
light-hearted California Here I Come.

02 - How My Heart Sings

02. Bill Evans - Alone (Again) (1975)

Part of a 5-album Bill Evans SHM-CD cardboard sleeve reissue series featuring
albums I Will Say Goodbye, Alone (Again), Intuition, Re: Person I Knew, and
Jazzhouse. Alone (Again) is a solo piano album by American jazz pianist Bill
Evans, recorded in December 1975 but not released until 1977 on Fantasy Records.
To paraphrase President Kennedys famous remark about Thomas Jefferson dining
alone, when Bill Evans played solo piano there had never been such a gathering
of intellect, ability, and expressiveness at a keyboard. A successor to Alone,
for which he won a Grammy, Alone (Again) highlights all of Evanss strength: his
exquisitely balanced time, the depth of his harmonic genius, the inimitable
singing quality of his phrasing. His producers say that it was difficult to get
Evans to record by himself. He claimed it was his one area of performance
insecurity. Perhaps he was concerned about revealing as much of himself as he
does in these pieces.

02 - In Your Own Sweet Way
03 - Make Someone Happy
04 - What Kind Of Fool Am I
05 - People

03. Bill Evans - Intuition (1974)

Part of a 5-album Bill Evans SHM-CD cardboard sleeve reissue series featuring
albums I Will Say Goodbye, Alone (Again), Intuition, Re: Person I Knew, and
Jazzhouse. After seven years of their close relationship in his trio, Bill Evans
in 1974 finally realized his dream of recording a duo album with bassist Eddie
Gomez. Intuition is that album. One of the most brilliant of the young bassists
influenced by Scott LaFaro, Gomez continued development of the role of the bass
in Evanss trio as a fully contributory voice, not just a member of the rhythm
section.
Gomez had contrived, years earlier, to be in a band opposite Evans at the
Village Vanguard, in hopes that the pianist would like what he had heard. Evans
did, and Gomez became an indispensable member of the trio, staying for more that
a decade. The depth of their empathy is beautifully captured in this recording,
with Evans playing acoustic piano and the electric model that was in vogue at
the time.

01 - Invitation
02 - Blue Serge
03 - Show-Type Tune
04 - The Nature Of Things
05 - Are You All The Things
06 - A Face Without A Name

04. Bill Evans - Alone (Again) (1975)

Part of a 5-album Bill Evans SHM-CD cardboard sleeve reissue series featuring
albums I Will Say Goodbye, Alone (Again), Intuition, Re: Person I Knew, and
Jazzhouse. Alone (Again) is a solo piano album by American jazz pianist Bill
Evans, recorded in December 1975 but not released until 1977 on Fantasy Records.

05. The Bill Evans Trio - I Will Say Goodbye (1977)

Part of a 5-album Bill Evans SHM-CD cardboard sleeve reissue series featuring
albums I Will Say Goodbye, Alone (Again), Intuition, Re: Person I Knew, and
Jazzhouse. The title refers to the Michel Legrand piece performed twice on the
date, and to the fact that pianist Bill Evans was on the verge of switching
labels from Fantasy to Warner Bros.
For his final Fantasy album, Evans, bassist Eddie Gómez, and drummer Eliot
Zigmund perform memorable renditions of such songs as Herbie Hancocks Dolphin
Dance, Johnny Mandels Seascape, and Burt Bacharachs underrated A House Is Not a
Home. The CD reissue adds two additional selections (Nobody Else But Me and
Orsons Theme) from this excellent series of sessions. Fine post-bop music from
an influential piano giant.

01 - I Will Say Goodbye
02 - Dolphin Dance
03 - Seascape
04 - Peau Douce
05 - I Will Say Goodbye (Take 2)
06 - The Opener
07 - Quiet Light
08 - A House Is Not A Home
09 - Nobody Else But Me (bonus track)
10 - Orsons Theme (bonus track)
