Deep, emotional and elegant, this haut couturier of jazz once again demonstrated his fascinating mastery of harmony, rhythm, musical creativity and improvisation. A legend admired by us all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nA JOURNEY THROUGH TIME\u003cbr\u003e\n\nBILL EVANS, PIANO I EDDIE GOMEZ, BASS I JACK DEJOHNETTE, DRUMS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nWho was the man slipping discretely into VARA’s small Hilversum studio on 22 June 1968? He had the slim silhouette of Yves Saint Laurent, with the same “don’t mind me” attitude. It was none other than Bill Evans. Following in his steps, all smiles, were drummer Jack DeJohnette and Puerto Rican bass player Eddie Gomez, his trusty touring partner of several years. One month previously they had won a historical Grammy Award in Montreux, a consecration for Bill Evans and confirmation that his art had reached dazzling heights.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nAfter a first cigarette, a first solo: a ballad on You’re Gonna Hear from Me. Immediately the fascinating interplay between Eddie and Bill began as they built up the backbone to the melody, and then let it roll as if it could no longer be controlled. Bill, the solitary explorer, imposed this trio technique based on the freedom of each of the musicians. But it was no more than an apparent liberty, because Bill knew, well ahead of time, the form the journey would take, its twists and turns, and its end.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe chords played by his left hand constituted the base, and this he demonstrated spectacularly in Very Early, one of his compositions that abruptly plunged the audience into a smoky New York bar. And so the tone was set: nothing excessive, constant avoidance of any hint of vulgarity. Profound, emotional and elegant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nTRACKLIST\u003cbr\u003e\n\n01 YOU’RE GONNA HEAR FROM ME - 4:29\u003cbr\u003e\n02 VERY EARLY - 5:24\u003cbr\u003e\n03 WHO CAN I TURN TO - 5:45\u003cbr\u003e\n04 NARDIS - 8:44\u003cbr\u003e\n05 EMBRACEABLE YOU - 5:13\u003cbr\u003e\n06 EMILY - 4:32\u003cbr\u003e\n08 TURN OUT THE STARS - 4:44\u003cbr\u003e\n09 FIVE - 2:23\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nDESCRIPTION\u003cbr\u003e\n\nSimple album\u003cbr\u003e\n180gm vinyl\u003cbr\u003e\nSoft touch gatefold\u003cbr\u003e\nDownload card included to get access to the digital files in .mp3 and .aiff 16bits formats.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis album is a first pressing and is limited to 900 copies.

Thanks to its physical properties, it is possible to cut all the finest details and textures of a recording.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nYet, the lacquers are never usually listened to since they are only used in the vinyl manufacturing process to create the pressing die.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nFew people in the world have had the chance to listen to this unique medium. With The Lost Recordings collection, we offer you the opportunity to live and share this intense emotional experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nCrafted out of aluminium and coated with a soft nitrocellulose lacquer, heavier and wider than a vinyl (14” instead of 12”) with a hypnotizing deep blue edge, the lacquer wears off as it is listened to.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nJust like tasting a great wine or living the pure experience of a live concert, listening to a lacquer is a fleeting chance that can only be lived once.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe sublime and ephemeral alliance of music and craftsmanship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nExceptional artists have been the fuel that has fired us, every step of the way.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe extreme beauty of the lacquer medium required a case just as superlative. That’s why we entrusted its design to some of the world’s greatest leather craftsmen. Philippe Atienza and Pierre Gerber were those to add the finishing touches to a legend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nHandcrafted from the finest leathers used to make luxurious custom-made leather goods, each case created is a unique gem sealed by the iconic Devialet emblem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nDESCRIPTION\u003cbr\u003e\n\nMATERIAL\u003cbr\u003e\nOutside the case: calf leather\u003cbr\u003e\nInside the case: suedettee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE\u003cbr\u003e\nA leather case with 4 lacquers from a double album, 2 lacquers from a single album\u003cbr\u003e\nStory of the concert and The Lost Recordings collection\u003cbr\u003e\nUser guide for the lacquers\u003cbr\u003e\nVinyl album + download card to obtain the digital files\n","brand":"Devialet","offers":[{"title":"Bill Evans Trio Vinyl LP - Devialet Lost Recordings","offer_id":57413404131660,"sku":"BILLEVANSTRIOVINYLLP","price":66.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bill Evans Trio  Lacquer LP - Devialet Lost Recordings","offer_id":57423009939788,"sku":"BILLEVANSTRIOLACQUER","price":5250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1053\/6891\/2204\/files\/Devialet_Lost-Recordings_BILL_EVANS_TRIO.jpg?v=1777543338","url":"https:\/\/www.stoneaudio.co.uk\/products\/bill-evans-trio-lp-devialet-lost-recordings","provider":"Stone Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
