How good could one man get? Bill Evans left plenty of recorded evidence of his constant striving to express the broadest and deepest canvas of emotional coloring possible. Aside from his 1961 Village Vanguard recordings with Lo Faro and Motian, this is my favorite live outing, taken as a whole. The selection of tunes is superb and Bill is in rare form throughout.

Peace,

I just picked up the Vee-Jay Definitive Collection from Shout Records. It's got jazz, blues, r&b, rock and roll, and do wop on the four discs and one of the things I like about it is that the styles aren't segregated so it's like listening to a good radio station playing your favorite or soon to be favorite tunes without any commercials. I've heard three of the discs so far and it's a real winner. There are quite a few songs that I was familiar with but didn't know they were on the label like Duke of Earl.

YUP, Felser even beat me to this back in 2006! :rofl:

After having to sell this in 2002, I finally stumbled upon a copy today. So nice to have this great music again!

Listening to Albert Ammons on disc one right now
