Evans, Bill
New Jazz Conceptions
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1960 Third Pressing. Cover Has Slight Seam & Corner Rubs. VG/VG+ Vinyl. Although All Of Bill Evans's Riverside Recordings Have Been Reissued On A Massive Box Set, Those Listeners Who Have Not Invested In That May Very Well Be Satisfied To Pick Up A Few Of His Milestone Two-fers. This Particular One Reissues The Influential Pianist's Very First Session As A Leader (Which Was Originally On An LP Titled New Jazz Conceptions), A Trio Date With Bassist Teddy Kotick And Drummer Paul Motian That Also Includes Three Unaccompanied Piano Solos (Highlighted By The Original Version Of Evans's Most Famous Composition, "Waltz For Debby"). In Addition, There Is A Full Album Of Previously Unreleased Music: An Alternate Take Of "No Cover, No Minimum," An Unaccompanied Version Of "Some Other Time" From 1958 And Four Solo Pieces That Evans Cut In 1962, His First Recordings After The Tragic Death Of His Bassist Scott Lafaro.
