Bill was, and still is, my favorite musician. Occasionally I would catch him alone at the Village Vanguard and we'd chat for a few minutes. He was very shy, very introverted. He had very little confidence and was not aware just how extraordinary he really was. He'd always play my favorite piece "All the Things You Are." He was an amazing talent, a true artist, gifted beyond measure.

You may already be familiar with it, but this is the recording (by a young Sarah Vaughan, accompanied by trumpeter Freddie Webster) that introduced this lovely Tadd Dameron ballad to the world in 1946. kzitem.info/news/bejne/1Hmdzn6Jimlkn4o

Drug addiction is an attributable influence on a person's music to the same extent that any personal tragedy is an influence -- they always are. But that is all drug addiction is, really. It is tragic and painful. When people dealing with that manage to express themselves so brilliantly as Bill Evans, it is more reasonable to presume that it was despite their addiction, not because of it.

just started listening to him. I am addicted to his style and playing. I have gotten my hands on some of my favorite piano transcriptions and play them daily. Crazy about Bill Evans. How amazing that his music/playing has this effect still. it says it all. God bless him.

cada vez que ouço Bill Evans sinto que sua música é redescoberta a cada audição, em função da riqueza de improvisações, de seu perfeito fraseado e acima de tudo de sua imensa emoção que transborda em cada interpretação.

For sure that is Eddie Gomez on bass. I have an old Bill Evans vinyl record in which Eddie Gomez is the bass player; this looks exactly like him and sounds the same.

@rxj9000 I must be hanging out in the wrong elevators then. Bill Evans was arguably the greatest jazz artist. One can argue that certainly.... so let's say he was one of the greats.

Beautiful. There is something about his tone, like you can feel the wood of his bass creaking and resonating with some notes where with most bass players it's all strings.

It has to be considered that he was a more imspired pianist because of his drug habit. That said, I'd rather he'd had a little less inspiration and a longer life for us to enjoy his superb talent! Full marks to the poster(s) of this and other clips of him on KZitem for us all to marvel at.

I disagree. Being emotional as it is, Evan's music is clearly effected by everything that he's through, weather it's drugs, emotional crisis, or anything else. That's what makes his biography so interesting. Don't you think?

There's some garbage popular song these days that shares the name with this tune. Kind of a bummer since it dillutes the searches.
