BILL EVANS - The Bill Evans Album

An essential Bill Evans trio recording: seven compositions by the pianist, recorded in 1971 with Eddie Gomez on double bass and Marty Morell on drums. Alongside his acoustic piano, Evans explores the Fender Rhodes with his unmistakable musical voice.

The trio and electric piano

From The Two Lonely People to Sugar Plum and Waltz for Debby, the album balances lyricism, harmonic imagination and interplay. This Speakers Corner pressing presents the original Columbia album and is described by its label as mastered through an all-analogue chain.
