Bill Evans • Quintessence

 

Review
by Scott Yanow
Most of pianist Bill Evans' recordings were in a trio format, making this quintet date a nice change of pace. Evans' all-star group consists of tenor saxophonist Harold Land, guitarist Kenny Burrell, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer Philly Joe Jones and the results are quite tasteful and explorative in a subtle way. This version of Thad Jones' "A Child Is Born" is most memorable.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
La mayoría de las grabaciones del pianista Bill Evans eran en formato de trío, por lo que esta cita en quinteto es un buen cambio de ritmo. El grupo de estrellas de Evans está formado por el saxofonista tenor Harold Land, el guitarrista Kenny Burrell, el bajista Ray Brown y el baterista Philly Joe Jones, y los resultados son de muy buen gusto y exploran de manera sutil. Esta versión de "A Child Is Born" de Thad Jones es muy memorable.
