Description

mint unplayed Waltz for Debby 45rpm double lp out of print by Bill Evans.  Analogue Productions/Acoustech Mastering.  Pallas Pressing.

 

Bill Evans' recordings almost always received good to excellent sound, and the Analogue Productions reissues are no exception. While I don't own the original releases, the 45 rpm reissues clearly better, even after VTA adjustments, the later OJC reissues or the earlier 33 1/3 rpm Analogue Productions releases. The 45 rpm reissues are more musical and transparent; instruments have greater three-dimensionality and frequency extremes, especially lower octaves, exhibit greater resolution and impact. Get them before they're sold out!" Myles Astor, Positive-Feedback Online, Issue 34

Michael Fremer rated this record an 11 out of 11 for both music and sound. It is the only record yet reviewed by musicangle.com to receive the highest possible rating.

This is the second of two Riverside albums made up of selections recorded by the classic Bill Evans, Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian trio at their legendary live recording session of June 25, 1961. Although originally issued a half-year later than Sunday At The Village Vanguard, this was by no means an afterthought collection of lesser items: Evans and producer Orrin Keepnews immediately recognized that there was more than enough material for two top-level records. The dozen chosen performances were subdivided to enable the first album released to feature LaFaro—who died in an auto accident just ten days after recording. Thus this second collection can fairly be said to present a more typical overview of this remarkable unit at work.

Recorded in 1961.

Bill Evans, piano
Scott LaFaro, bass
Paul Motian, drums
