Bill Evans, Live at Art D'Lugoffs Top of The Gate

With Live at Art D’Lugoff’s Top of the Gate, Resonance Records offers listeners a table at the front of the stage for a stellar performance by one of jazz’s greatest trios. It’s October 23, 1968 in Greenwich Village, and legendary pianist Bill Evans is joined by bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Marty Morell for two top-notch sets, represented here in their entirety. Aired only once, on Columbia University radio station WKCR-FM, this concert hasn’t been heard for more than forty years and has never been released in any form.

“This gives people a good idea of what it must have been like to be in the room at the time and experience the music,” says producer Zev Feldman. “We’ve done everything short of building a time machine.”
