Keepnews gives a little context in the liner notes to the complete Riverside recordings box. Evans in 1962 was depressed and using heavily, and it took some coaxing by Riverside to get him back in the studio after LaFaro's death. There was an aborted 4-song solo piano session before this that Bill just couldn't finish, in April of '62. 1962 is when Evans begin to move beyond the trio and do both chamber jazz and larger ensembles with horn frontlines under his own name, though he notably was featured heavily on two hard bop albums by Cannonball Adderley recorded for Riverside, in 1958 and 1961. The first, like "Interplay", had Philly Joe, and the second had Percy Heath. Two weeks after the April solo session, Bill and Jim cut "Undercurrent" for United Artists (I have no idea why Riverside loaned him out; as a side note, "Undercurrent" producer Alan Douglas later produced a bunch of posthumous and infamous Jimi Hendrix records!). "Undercurrent" wasn't a follow up to "Interplay", but rather the opening round of the Hall/Evans working partnership. Then Evans cut two trio records with Chuck Israels and Motian (he also did some session work with Herbie Mann and Benny Golson), and then came summertime quintet sessions with Hubbard and Zoot. Keepnews did the second session with Zoot simply to give Evans money, as Evans was putting a whole lot of his income into his arm that year. Money needs might also explain the United Artists record and the "Empathy" session with Shelly Manne for Verve (that's speculation on my part). The Zoot session was all Evans originals, which again was a play to put more income into Evans' pocket. Evans left Riverside in early 1963 as that label was going under, and his first Verve record under his long-term contract with the label was "Conversations with Myself". A month before "Conversations", he cut 2 albums' worth of very stark, emotionally raw solo piano for Riverside (beautiful recordings released much later as "Solo Sessions"), his final recordings with the label. He didn't really like his solo playing that much, thus all the overdubbing on the two "Conversations" albums that preceded the 1968 "Alone" session, where he finally made a solo album he was okay with.
Good stuff. I must say the 2 Solo Sessions albums recorded in 1963 are absolutely superb. The Spartacus / Nardis medley might be Bill's finest ever performance
I like the later bill Evans records tbh. The ones with the Rhodes and piano but also the later ensemble records like affinity and the one with Tom Harrell on it ...
@@smalldog1 You Must Believe In Spring ... what a beautiful album! ... I actually wondered if this is what they were going for here; glad you brought it up!
I rate as 9.5s both this amazing album and the Adam/Peter review team. We are so blessed to have this growing series of deep dives by two guys who bring their experience and expertise along while so obviously enthralled as audience members. Between the two of them, I always find my enjoyment and appreciation in high gear. Love you guys!
I think Evans' best group was with Lafaro and Motian, and as a result of this, I think Portrait In Jazz and Explorations are his best albums. Keep it up with featuring jazz albums.
interplay! love this album, can't wait to hear your thoughts philly joe plays so great (like always), but man, his kit sounds amazing and so well-blended on this recording. hh + ride are like a single voice
Nice show. I like how in depth you guys go with the explanations of the music content. Bill Evans larger group records are totally sleepers, and this one is a favorite of mine. Agree that swingin Bill records can also be really great as juxtaposed to his ethereal ones.
Great video! Love this album, everything about it is so good! There's another very similar Bill Evans album that is often forgotten or less known, which I guess is part of the "Interplay Sessions" called Loose Blues. Recorded in 1962 on Milestones Label but came out under different names in the 80s. The album has a great lineup: Bill Evans, Jim Hall, Ron Carter, Philly Joe Jones, Zoot Sims. All tracks are Bill's compositions. It's a beautiful album, the writing and playing are top shelf! The title track is actually very similar to the tune 'Interplay". Enjoy!!
I love we will meet again...this album gives me the feeling of balance between the nuance of his touch, his improvisation and his impressionistic lyrics. I love that album and I think I have all of them.
Having really started to intentionally listen to Bill in 2020, this album cover has always grabbed my attention but I’ve never given it a listen. Thanks for this!
The best bill evans record is "new bill evans & symphony orchestra" arranged by Francis Cluster, of which you can listen to 5 new pieces on my channel! 😉
When I was fifteen I lived in an apartment in a building owned by my grandmother. It was on Laclede just about where you guys are now. There's no reason why you should care about this; it's just peculiar that six decades later I look out your window on a building (it looks like a church now) that is but a house or two away from where I spent an adolescent and very weird moment in my life. Am I getting this right? I haven't been back to ST. Louis since 1980 and when I left there was barely ANY Jazz in the town at all. I love you guys.
Great discussion!! Love IT! The discussion about Bill's quarter note line at the 20:52 mark is interesting. The "bluesy" quarter note figure Bill plays during the section Peter singles out is nearly identical (or at least very similar) to the opening of Bill's solo on Oleo from "Everybody Digs Bill Evans". Got to love the blues:) ruclips.net/video/yX6QSvkpknQ/видео.html
For me undercurrent is the most special bill Evans album. The melodies are simple but they have kept me up at night. The combination with Jim hall is unrivaled
Philly Joe was the master. My absolute favorite!!! Check out his shuffle like comping in the first two A sections of the last chorus of Bill's solo on You And The Night... Then how he is not comping much during Freddie's second chorus on the snare drum then plays 4 and heading into Freddie's third chorus and then more incredible snare drum comping. That's why having a happening cymbal beat is so important. If you have that first, along with feathering the bass drum and swingin hi hat which really helps the cymbal beat, then you can be free to comp like that. All the greatest drummers to me had that great beat and were great compers. Thanks for this video and the others you do.
Other Guitar/piano with horns records: Sonny Rollins and the Contemporary Leaders (Sonny with Hampton Hawes and Barney Kessel) For something more recent: Rising Grace by Wolfgang Muthspiel with Brad and Ambrose
I'm always surprised/confused more people weren't big on him back in the day. His playing is so approachable, smooth and just on it. Had no idea Levar was getting busy like that when not on the set of Reading Rainbow.
You guys should do an episode focusing JUST on bonus tracks / tracks that were initially unreleased... There are some real bangers out there. Other than that, I'm with you on bonus tracks inhibiting the flow of an album.
Some great Bill Evans facts here : Bill Evans was strongly against anti-black racism of the time and he spoke out about it. Drummer Jimmy Cobb talks a little about this before he left us ( Rip Jimmy ). Bill was also in a relationship with Peri Cousins which he wrote "Peri's Scope" for. I shouldn't have to say that Peri was a black woman equally as stunning as miles davis' wife from the E.S.P album cover. Bill is a hero... In the music and outside of the music.
@@ArtieFufkin984 un-huh, Miles was so racist that he fired Red Garland ( A black guy ) and replaced him with Bill Evans. And poor Bill was so much of a victim of Miles racist attacks that after he left Miles, he hooked up with and Dated Peri Cousins. A black woman. Take that 'Bill Evans was a VICTIM of racism' garbage and sling it elsewhere.
My favorite musician along with Brian Wilson. Albums with Scott lafaro are classics but so is undercurrent and the album with chet baker. His album where he plays the Rhodes along with his piano is probably the most underrated one of all
Interplay :-) Found this used 25 years ago; I lucked out. In terms of "most underrated," my vote would be the 3-volume Paris Concert, but that's because I already owned Interplay!
Great upload, everyone! As a Bill Evans fan, I’m surprised I’ve never come across this album before-such a pleasant discovery. I’d love to recommend an album for you to check out: Akira Ishikawa & Count Buffalos - Lupin the 3rd. I think you’ll enjoy it!
If Hall hadn't been available, the obvious guitar foil, more than Wes or Grant, would to have been Kenny Burrell. Bill and Kenny did actually record a decade later, but it was a different time for Bill and the record wasn't so memorable. Hall and Burrell each play on half of a Nat Adderley record from this era, and they both combine the blues with a touch of cool jazz.
It would be interesting you picking 3 different versions of the same tune from three different artists, while you compare the different approaches each artists has over the same piece of music. And do the same for 3 -4 tunes during the same episode.
I don't mean to pick on you, but around 7:50, you hand wave "also lots of political things happening" in 1963. That was a seminal year for the Civil Rights movement. Birmingham, Little Rock, The March on Washington and the I Have a Dream speech. A year of political violence and intense cultural upheaval, leading directly to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Certainly a consequential year.
Thank you for the shoutout on the transcription! Freddie's playing on this album is one of my biggest inspirations. 🙏 Your show has helped me learn so much!
For legit authorized remasters, 9 out of 10 times I'll take an 80s or 90s CD over more recent, because even jazz albums are victims of the loudness wars. The exceptions are "RVG Series" Blue Notes and 78 era swing with extreme noise reduction.
Bill always swung hard with Philly Joe. Check out the “California Here I Come” album. Bill sounds hopelessly Caucasian on side one, but then locks in with Philly Joe by side two and swings super hard. Philly Joe was a great influence on Bill’s swing feeling, but not so much on the heroin abuse side, unfortunately.
@@song4nightI was using it as its definition meaning a white person. Just a silly expression we used to use to mean a white jazz musician with poor swing feel. You know, like Billy Crystal saying that white people dance with the “white man’s overbite”.
I am confused. Why are there 30 min videos with the title: What Makes This Album Great with the 10 categories, and then hour long videos about albums without the title but with the categories and then hour long album reviews with different categories. Thats confusing 😵💫😵💫
Philly Joe here, AND there are the quarter note triplets that go from beat 2-4, (NOT 1 to 3)... on the muted snare. ruclips.net/video/0NQYBPe5tzk/видео.html
I sat through almost 18 minutes before I could learn the name of the album and buy it from the iTunes Store. Excuse me for not watching the rest of your video, but to me Jazz is something you listen to. I did give you a thumbs up.
I love your show but you drive me crazy by rambling so long without mentioning the name of the album you’re getting ready to play. Sometimes you forget to mention the name all together. You guys are still great

From Left to Right is his best record IMO, incredibly beautiful the mix of the piano, rhodes and orchestra is just sublime.
I love the one simply called The Bill Evans Album. It has Rhodes mixed with piano. Killin' playing.

Exceptionnal album, my favorite will always remains his solo album "Alone" that is rarely cited but single-handedly brought me into jazz
Is Alone the solo album that contains That Rainy Day ?
If it’s that album, man, I agree with you. That one really hooked me on Evans.

What is the album ? I didn’t catch it but love it from thd first tunes.
I think you should definitely talk about bad albums from the masters of Jazz. It will really put things in perspective and be informative.
Bill Evans recorded with the Benny Golson Ten-ette. Nice album.
As a guitarist and pianist feel free to do Undercurrent! 😁👍
I agree!
Great album.
Also check out the Interplay Sessions with Zoot Sims, a killer session thats often forgotten.
Absolutely yes to Freedom of the Groove

21:49 a slight reminder we are humans… back to Bill Evans
Did I hear Adam say his ‘banger’ track was ‘I’ll Never SLEEP Again’?! 🤣 Great album.
Black forest (De Johnette and Gomez) is an underrated trio record imho
Favorite pianists, talking about my favorite pianist and talking my favorite topic.
Y'all ever gonna do "Out to Lunch?"

Modern Art is probably the "less-discovered" gem for me (Farmer, Golson). Bill almost sounds like Tommy Flanagan
Speaking of underrated albums that Evans played on, ever heard of Kind of Blue?
Yeah man
but is it better than KOB?
Bill Evans was also on The Blues and the Abstract Truth. Sideman on two of the greatest albums ever. Hero-level pianist!

Freddie certainly ate his wheaties that morning.
By the way, this album makes me wonder ... did Bill Evans ever record with Woody Shaw?
Bill Evan's Tony Bennett album is especially close for me.
Gary Burton’s like minds, Pat Metheny and Chick Corea play beautifully together
I hoped it would turn out te be Affinity, definately ‘the greatest Evans album’ 😊
In music school, we called him : Bill-Elevenths ( Because of his usage of 11th chords ). Much like Adam and Herbie, I out-grew bill as i got older.
Not me hoping this was going to be about Symbiosis 😭
... You're wrong, it's B'Eleven's. - or was it BEfore Heavens ?!¿
