Undercurrent Bill Evans & Jim Hall SKU: PPANUAJS15003 Barcode: 5060149621622 34.00 £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure Released Date: 23rd July 2012 Buying Format: 180g 1LP Add to basket Reserve Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info This is the first of two superb albums recorded by Bill Evans, and guitarist Jim Hall, and it was recorded over two sessions in April and May 1962. Arrangements simply for piano and guitar are rare in Jazz, and it is even more seldom that the results are truly inspiring and as musically worthwhile as in this case. It is usual for intuitive musical relationships to develop over a number of years, but here we find two musicians who clearly shared an immediate understanding. Both men are on absolute top form here – Bill Evans was on fire throughout the early and mid sixties, and after the tragic death of his previous musical partner, virtuoso bass player Scott Le Faro (at the age of 23), he was searching for new directions. Jim Hall is a guitarist of tremendous skill and powerful technique, with a highly developed rhythmic and harmonic sense that shines through on this album. What is so special about the performances here is an almost telepathic anticipation of where the music is heading – both musicians contribute equally, and there is a constant exchange of ideas, each reacting to the other with apparent ease, whatever the mood. This is a brilliant jazz album, of great depth and tremendous atmosphere, and both players express some exceptional ideas. Highly recommended. – Dominic L Brown Personnel: Bill Evans, piano & Jim Hall, guitar Re-mastering by: Ron McMaster at Capitol Studios Recorded at Sound Makers, NYC, May 14, 1962 Recording engineer: Bill Schwartau Artist Bill Evans & Jim Hall Genre Jazz Label Pure Pleasure Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Side A : 1.
