Personnel: Bill Evans (piano); Joe La Barbera (drums).
Liner Note Author: Wim Van Eyle.
Recording information: Keystone Corner, San Francisco, Unites States (08/31/1980-09/07/1980).
Photographer: Guy Lequerrec.
The music on this live CD is much better played than expected, for pianist Bill Evans would pass away on the following September 15. Recorded at San Francisco's Keystone Korner during his last engagement, Evans (along with bassist Marc Johnson and drummer Joe LaBarbera) still seems in surprisingly prime form on four originals (including "Letter to Evan" and "Bill's Hit Tune"), three obscurities, and the "Theme from M.A.S.H." Hopefully, the music from this well-documented gig will eventually be released completely and in chronological order, for the highly influential pianist shows no obvious sign of decline during the highly intuitive post-bop performance. ~ Scott Yanow
