Gil Evans
These jazz albums are splendid representations of the first full decade of LPs and of stereo recording as well.
Quite properly, Miles Evans evokes rather than mimics his dad’s arrangements on this excellent disc.
If you’re a Gil Evans devotee, or even a casual appreciator, have I got good news for you: Ryan Truesdell’s Centennial, more than 70 minutes of Evans that we never thought we’d hear, 10 tunes realized so beautifully and brilliantly that they should win a Grammy for Truesdell and a second, posthumous Grammy for Evans.
