Our Take

Jazz legend Bill Evans takes us on a mesmerising journey with his latest release, "Inner Spirit: The 1979 Concert At The Teatro General San Martin / Buenos Aires". The live recording captures Evans at the peak of his powers, effortlessly blending intricate melodies with soul-stirring improvisations.

From the moment the first notes hit your ears, you're transported to a smoky club in Buenos Aires, where Evans and his band weave a spellbinding tapestry of sound. The chemistry between Evans, bassist Marc Johnson, and drummer Joe LaBarbera is palpable, as they navigate complex harmonies and intricate rhythms with ease.

Evans' piano playing is nothing short of breathtaking, as he effortlessly glides from hauntingly beautiful ballads to blistering up-tempo solos. His delicate touch and masterful phrasing are on full display, creating a sense of intimacy that draws you in and never lets go.

Tracks like "Senor Blues" and "Blue In Green" showcase Evans' unparalleled ability to evoke emotion through his music, while the energetic rendition of "Waltz for Debby" is a joyous celebration of his virtuosity.

"Inner Spirit" is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado, as it captures the magic of a live Bill Evans performance in all its glory. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sit back, and let yourself be transported by the sheer brilliance of this timeless album. Cheers to you, Mr. Evans. Cheers to you.
