Yeah, Paul Bley - always plays like Paul bley. He's one of the great individuals, there is no "context" for him to be in - he IS the context!  Everything else goes from that.

He is the context indeed! (I'm not that keen on piano solo, but I love that album).
On the trio side of thing, how do you like "Japan Suite"? (I think you posted it a week or two ago; I never had a chance to hear it)

Sound is okay, not really that much more--oddly Gomez is nicely picked up but the drums are all over the place. Some really nice playing.

Why is there an illustration of Dave Brubeck on this Bill Evans CD?

The story about it is in the book. The drawing of Evans by DSM was held by Cynthia Sesso of CTS Images, released for use on this release by Zev F.

If that is supposed to be Bill Evans, I'm sure glad DSM never wanted to become a police sketch artist!

I tried holding out on listening to this until my new cd player arrived today but it got delayed until Monday and I couldn't resist. Second spin and I'm in love with is. Right up there with Noah Preminger's Contemptment as favorite of the year.

Is that Billy Root on the tenor? I have the feeling that he was in a Gillespie Tribute Orchestra I saw in LA in the late 1990s. The lineup in that band was quite an eye-opener.

Quite late in Dexter´s career, maybe not the greatest performance, but still very fine.
