Bill Evans is playing a piano whose upper register sounds too bright and chimey. It's very easy to overlook since the performance is so good. This trio with bassist Marc Johnson and Pat LaBarbera had marvelous interplay. Many think it was one of his best. The link to the performance on the "Moonbeams" album let's you hear Evans' first recording of "Re:". MOG doesn't seem seem to create Play buttons when a song title contains punctuation, like this does. Click... MORE

Blog post image preview ....the other day and am just now getting to hear it. I'm doin OK, though. I'm only about three months behind in digesting the new music constantly coming in, sometimes daily. Anyway, I've heard a lot about this record and I'm sure I won't be disappointed, yo.

I love this record. It is a classic and while it may be better for Sunday afternoon, I love it with the first cup of coffee on Sunday morning. Other choices are Thomas A. Dorsey and the Precious Lord recordings. Something about Gospel music that just seems right for Sunday morning. I also have a penchant for anything by Dusty Springfield or Dylan. What about you moggers?
