The Late Great Bill Evans

[ReformedDave]

Every once in a while a rare musician comes along with such beauty, style, depth, introspection and technique and is able to put it all together into something memorable. Bill Evans was one of those. Great pianist and musician that is more influential today than he was when he passed away in 1980. Like many great geniuses he fought his demons....and lost about 1 month after this video.

Dave,

Wow, thanks for sharing about him, I have never heard of him before, I listened and did a google search.

I wish that God gave me the discipline and talent to play the piano, for those that do, I envy you.

Dave,

Great piece... I found the bass intrusive and counter to the flow but then I who am I to judge great jazz?
