Europe 2012 Reissue,
Aye it’s that one. The gateway. The blueprint. The record that’s sitting in about 90 percent of serious collections for a reason. Modal jazz stripped back to feeling and space. Miles cool as anything, Coltrane circling, Cannonball glowing, Bill Evans floating about like he’s barely touching the keys. It’s effortless and deep at the same time. If you don’t own it yet, stop pretending you’re being selective.

Bill Evans Trio, John Coltrane early 60s, Chet Baker, Dave Brubeck quieter cuts, cool jazz essentials
