Please check my jazzblog at jazzpages.tumblr.com On the all-too-rare occasions when jazz gets an outing on television, many viewers make inevitable, and often unfavourable, comparisons with 'Jazz 625'. A well-informed presenter, a superb sound balance and an uncluttered approach to camera work and direction all combined to set a gold standard in the televisual representation of jazz. It was also in the right place at the right time. The end of the long-standing deadlock between the Musicians' Union and the American Federation of Musicians meant that big names from the US were coming over to Britain for the first time since the 1930's. Many shows of its era are ill-represented in the BBC archives, as they were either junked after transmission or, if broadcast live, not recorded at all. Happily, this is not the case with 'Jazz 625'. With video tape recording still in its infancy, machines were in heavy demand. So, many programmes, particularly in the drama field, were 'telerecorded' onto 35mm film, from a feed of the studio output. This method made editing a lot easier, and has aided the survival of programmes recorded in this way. Recorded at the BBC Studios, London, on March 19th, 1965 Bill Evans - Piano Chuck Israel - Bass Larry Bunker - Drums

"Autumn Leaves" is a much-recorded popular song. Originally a 1945 French song "Les feuilles mortes" (literally "Dead Leaves") with music by Joseph Kosma and lyrics by poet Jacques Prévert, English lyrics were written in 1947 by the American songwriter Johnny Mercer. It has become a pop standard and a jazz standard in both languages, and as an instrumental. "Les feuilles mortes" was introduced by Yves Montand in 1946 for the film Les Portes de la Nuit.[1] The film Autumn Leaves (1956) starring Joan Crawford featured the song, which was sung by Nat King Cole over the title sequence. The French songwriter Serge Gainsbourg wrote "La chanson de Prévert" as a tribute to this song. The tribute added much color into the song.

London, March 19, 1965 Personnel: Bill Evans - p Chuck Israels - b Larry Bunker - d Set: Part I Five (theme) Elsa Summertime Come Rain Or Come Shine My Foolish Heart Re: Person I Knew Israel Five (theme) Part II Five (theme) How My Heart Sings Nardis Who Can I Turn To? Some Day My Prince Will Come How Deep Is The Ocean? Waltz For Debby Notes: "Nardis" was composed for Evans by Miles Davis. The piece first appeared on the trio's LP EXPLORATIONS (release date: 2 Feb 61). This is the third incarnation of Bill Evans' great '60s piano trios, playing at a very high level. Chuck Israels' bass work, in particular, is nothing short of virtuosic. His playing shows the influence of Scott LaFaro -- especially in his use of counterpoint -- but he's supremely inventive. Background: Evans' first (and greatest) trio featured the irreplaceable Scott LaFaro on double bass and Paul Motian on drums. After LaFaro's tragic death in a car accident in 1961 (at age 25), Evans was so overcome with grief that he didn't play again publicly for almost a year. In early '62, he reformed his trio and hired Chuck Israels to replace LaFaro. Motian departed the trio in 1964, and was replaced by Larry Bunker. If you're interested in hearing the greatest of all piano trios, here are the CDs to buy: PORTRAIT IN JAZZ (1959) EXPLORATIONS (1961) THE COMPLETE VILLAGE VANGUARD RECORDINGS, 1961 (3-CDs representing the trio's complete five sets at the Village Vanguard on Sunday, June 25, 1961, 11 days before <b>...</b>

Please check my jazzblog at jazzpages.tumblr.com From the jazzpages personal archives, I bring you the intriguing documentary 'The Universal Mind Of Bill Evans'. Several years ago, Rhapsody released a 21-minute video called 'Bill Evans On The Creative Process', a badly edited reduction of a 1966 TV program introduced by Steve Allen, the first host of the now famous 'Tonight Show'. This short film is a restoration of the original 45-minute telecast. Here is Evans, his hair slicked back, his terrible teeth uncapped, a cigarette waving in the air, in intense conversation with his composer brother Harry Evans (a professor of music at Louisiana State University) on the nature of creativity in jazz. This documentary features in-depth discussion of Evans' internal process of song interpretation, improvisation, and repertoire. Through demonstration on the piano, Bill uses the song 'Star Eyes' to illustrate his own conception of solo piano and how to interpret and expand upon the melody and underlying chord structure. Onstage, Evans was famously reticent about speaking, but here he's surprisingly, stirringly provocative.

Some Day My Prince Will Come How Deep Is The Ocean? Waltz For Debby Notes: "My Foolish Heart" is an Academy Award-nominated popular song that was published in 1949. "Re: Person I Knew" was written as a tribute to Orrin Keepnews. The title is an anagram of his name. Keepnews was one of the founders of Riverside Records, and the producer of the June 21, 1961, Village Vanguard dates that resulted in the LPs SUNDAY AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD and WALTZ FOR DEBBY. (The complete recordings from that date were later collected in the 3-CD box set THE COMPLETE VILLAGE VANGUARD RECORDINGS, 1961.)
