Paul Motian - Bill Evans: Tribute to the Great Post-Bop Pianist CD


Available from Amazon Marketplace 5 Used from $17.09

BILL EVANS is a tribute to drummer Paul Motian's early 1960's employer, one that highlights Bill Evans--one of the most lyrical, impressionistic pianists in jazz history--as composer. Featuring guitarist Bill Frisell at his most straight-ahead, former Evans bassist Marc Johnson, and the hearty tenor sax of Joe Lovano, BILL EVANS is an affectionate but inventive homage. It's a brilliant, inspired, and subtly swinging collection.

Recorded at Sorcerer Sound, New York, New York in May 1990.

Bill Evans: Tribute to the Great Post-Bop Pianist Music Review

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Excellent, enjoyable, fresh - perfect
This is another 5-star reissue from Paul Motian's work in the early 1990s. I missed them all when they first came out, and now I'm keenly waiting for each new reissue. On Broadway discs, the set of Monk tunes, and this set of Bill Evans' tunes, all amazing. Really. Joe Lovano and Bill Frisell play without worries of having to be deep ARTISTS and without having to lead, period. Motian has nothing to prove so he can enjoy himself and the results are magic. Since this disc is about Bill Evans' music, I should add that please check him out too - he was one the masters of jazz piano.
