Music reviews of The Complete Village Vanguard Recordings, 1961
Music Review: Heavenly!
Rating: 5 Stars
How else could you describe this collection but "Heavenly"! The music sounds so effortless and airy, yet there's no way anyone but accomplished musicians could play like this. I normally go for the rougher-edged side of jazz, like Monk, Mingus, or Coltrane... trios are often too "smooth" sounding for me. These recordings, however, are so beautiful and nuanced (and well-recorded) that I can't stop listening to them! Evans has a great, angular style which keeps this from ever sounding "easy listening".

Title: COMPLETE VILLAGE
Street Release Date: 09/13/2005
Genre: JAZZ
Bill Evans, with virtuoso bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian, reinvented the jazz piano trio, creating stunning contrapuntal dialogues that merged luminous lyricism with layers of complex, elusive harmonies, its moments of limpid beauty suddenly giving way to surging rhythms. The trio's finest recorded moments, these performances were captured just 10 days before LaFaro's death in a car accident. The original releases--Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debby--are celebrated masterpieces. This three-CD set is a brilliant reissue--almost a revision--of that material, with superb sound from the newly remastered original tapes and all of the music presented in the sequence of the original five sets, adding a previously unissued take of "Gloria's Step," spoken introductions, and the band's incidental conversation. For those who know this music, it's a chance to hear it in a fresh way; for new listeners, it will come as a revelation at a bargain price. --Stuart Broomer
