Bill Evans Paris Concert: Edition 1

Product Description

Mastered by Bernie Grundman from the Original Masters / Pressed by The Pallas Group, Germany

Edition One of The Paris Concert by jazz giant Bill Evans was recorded live in November of 1979 at L’espace Cardin in Paris, France and originally issued on the Elektra Musician label in 1983. Evans is in top form here playing in an excellent trio rounded out by the likes of bassist Marc Johnson and drummer Joe LaBarbera, a group that was on par with his greatest outfits. This first edition of the two volume set is wonderfully highlighted by lush takes on Gershwin’s “I Loves You Porgy,” Rodgers & Hart’s “My Romance” and Paul Simon’s “I Do It For Your Love.”

Musicians:
Bill Evans, piano
Marc Johnson, bass
Joe LaBarbera, drums
