Explorations album Product Description



Explorations album by Bill Evans / Bill Evans Trio was released Oct 18, 2011 on the OJC Remasters label. Digitally remastered by David Luke (Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California). Explorations CD music Digitally remastered by JVC using XRCD (Extended Resolution Compact Disc) technology. EXPLORATIONS, Bill Evans' fourth solo album, is aptly named. Explorations music CDs Throughout, Evans displays the high-minded lyrical facility, long flowing phrases and rich sound that made him so popular with both fans and other musicians during the 1950s and '60s. Explorations songs The intrepid nature of his improvisations and the edgy interactivity of his trio echo the album's title in tracks like the expansive "Elsa," "Israel," and the Miles Davis composition "Nardis." Evans is also a master of the ballad, and he shapes tracks such as "Haunted Heart" and the shimmering, evocative "Elsa" into exercises of grace and sensitivity. There is a fair share of swing here too, with the up-tempo "Sweet and Lovely" and "Beautiful Love." Evan's imaginative, meticulous stylings flow through every piece, and it is difficult to resist the balance of intelligence, tenderness, groove and mood that EXPLORATIONS achieves. Import-only five CD box set containing a quintet of albums from the Pop diva: Divine Miss M (1972), Bette Midler (1973), Songs For The New Depression (1976), Broken Blossom (1977) and The Rose OST (1979).

Recemmended !
music is very good. sound also is very good. stereo mix is an "old LP school" type -when sum stuff comes from left speaker and some from th right, but almost nothing doesn't come from the center. Great SACD.

One of the best ever ....
If you enjoy piano-bass-drum trios and haven't heard this disc, you're missing out. This probably is my favorite Bill Evans recording. The versions of Israel, Beautiful Love, Nardis, and How Deep Is The Ocean are some of the best ever recorded. The interaction between LaFaro (bass) and Evans is inspired.
