I Love You, Porgy


I was listening to Bill Evans's short-lived trio with Jack DeJohnette and Eddie Gomez again, and somehow I missed the utter pulchritude of this solo piano rendition of "I Loves You, Porgy." I hate the title, but the music is pure ethereal beauty. While this recording may not be as famous as the legendary Village Vanguard trio recording, the cascading musical explorations of Bill are nothing short of soul-searching. I may have to revisit his solo recordings...
