Everybody Digs Bill Evans - Bill Evans

The record that gave us our name! Everybody Digs Bill Evans is a stunning showcase of the great pianist’s enduring genius. Released in 1959, the same year as Kind Of Blue - which Evans also appears on - this trio album, featuring Sam Jones on bass and Philly Joe Jones on drums, blends technical brilliance with an unparalleled tenderness. Tracks like "Peace Piece," and of course “Some Other Time” are meditative improvisations that highlight Evans’ introspective artistry and innovative approach to harmony. The album also includes exquisite renditions of standards such as "My Funny Valentine," where Evans' delicate touch shines through. Listening to this record changed my perspective on music forever, it really is that good.
