Thirteen years after his legendary Village Vanguard recordings,
Bill Evans recorded
Since We Met at the famous New York establishment again. Using his trio of the era (which includes bassist
Eddie Gómez and drummer
Marty Morell),
Evans explores both familiar ("Time Remembered," "Turn Out the Stars" and "But Beautiful") and new (
Joe Zawinul's "Midnight Mood," "See-Saw" and "Sareen Jurer") material. This CD reissue gives listeners a good example of
Bill Evans' early-'70s trio as it typically sounded in clubs. ~ Scott Yanow
