BILL EVANS TRIO - Everybody Digs Bill (Analogue Productions Reissue) - 2LP (45rpm) - Deluxe 180g Audiophile Vinyl [DATE TBC]

2LP - Limited Edition 180g 45rpm Black Vinyl. Individual title from The Bill Evans Riverside Recordings Box Set 180-gram 45 RPM double LP Mastered by Kevin Gray & Steve Hoffman at AcousTech Mastering AAA analogue from original master tapes.

The legend of Bill Evans really begins with this album, his second. The pianist had just spent most of 1958 as part of one of the major units in jazz history: The Miles Davis Sextet that also featured John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley. His fellow musicians already knew his worth (the album title was almost literally accurate, and the four endorsements on the cover, which embarrassed Bill, could easily have been greatly multiplied). With this record, the jazz public began to follow their lead.

Here, joined by bassist Sam Jones and drummer Philly Joe Jones, Evans delivers some of his most fluid, swinging trio performances — elegant, lyrical, and rhythmically alive. Yet it's the solo improvisation "Peace Piece" that forever marked his arrival. Built on two hypnotic chords, it unfolds with a quiet intensity that feels both spontaneous and transcendent — a glimpse into the meditative, deeply personal world Evans would explore for the rest of his career.
