Bill Evans Trio / Turn Out The Stars ~ Highlights WPCR917 This is the CD jacket for "The Artist's Choice: Highlights From Turn Out The Stars," a highlights album from the Bill Evans Trio's album "Turn Out The Stars: The Final Village Vanguard Recordings." Good sound quality I was moved by the quality of the sound at this live performance. From the audience's applause in the intro, I was drawn in with a feeling of "Oh!" I like other live recordings, but I always reach for the ones with good sound quality. This is a highlights album from the Bill Evans Trio's final recordings, made at the Village Vanguard in June 1980. It is known as one of Bill Evans' representative live albums. It is a valuable source for jazz fans and has a satisfying content. The Last Vanguard Live The tracks are a collection of Evans' carefully selected songs for a double LP that was scheduled to be released in the latter half of 1980. As Evans himself said, this trio was connected to his first trio (Scott LaFaro, Paul Motian), and it continued to evolve musically, making it the best trio he had met in the end. As Mark Johnson says, the familiar songs are reborn with new life, even though they play roughly the same songs each time. It's amazing, and you wouldn't believe it was performed just three months before his death.
