Title Note

Personnel: Bill Evans (piano); Eddie Gomez (bass); Jack DeJohnette (drums).

Engineers: Pierre Grand-Jean, Jean-Claude Martin.

Recorded at the Montreux Jazz Festival, Switzerland on June 15, 1968. Originally released on Verve (8762). Includes liner notes by Brian Priestly and Gene Lees.

All tracks have been digitally remastered.

This is part of Verve's Master Edition series.

This 1968 release of Bill Evans' performance at the Montreux Jazz Festival the year before is a pinnacle of trio interplay (handily justifying its being awarded a Grammy for Best Instrumental Small Group Jazz Performance). Drummer Jack DeJohnette, at the beginning of his career ascension, spent only a year with Evans. His playing at this performance embraces the rich trio format that Evans developed, wherein each of the three are of seemingly equal voice. Listening to this set, one is hard pressed to identify any one musician as being in support of the others; rather, they are in tandem or in conversation. The previously unissued "Quiet Now" joins "I Loves You Porgy" as gorgeously emotive meditation for solo piano.
