[@captpogossian]

Of the many versions of the piece I've heard, this one is just perfect. Poor Bill Evans, one of the innumerable great jazz artists whose life was blighted by addiction.

[@nasrosubari49]

Pan oRoya Great art only comes through suffering.

[@captpogossian]

Nasro Subari If you bother to think for a couple of minutes you'll perhaps realise what nonsense that notion is. Firstly because almost no-one's life, in totality, is without suffering, artist or not, and If you reflect on the life of many great artists - J. S. Bach being perhaps the greatest in mankind's history - great art is usually the product of inspiration combined with diligent hard work. Frequently inspired by happiness and beauty as much as suffering. Of course Bach,. like most people in his era was subject to premature bereavements however his life was also successful in all the conventional respects, save perhaps wealth. And Charlie Parker stated it clearly when he pointed out - as a long-term junkie himself (like Bill Evans) - that the idea that drugs or alcohol allows people to play better was pure nonsense.

[@druidofdark]

Pan oRoya I don't look at it as one will play better if drugs are used, more like they don't believe they can live life sober. Bill had gone through quite a lot, possibly for the reason that some turned to the drink, he had turned to the dope. It's not for performance, it's for coping with depression and stress.

[@MrRickywallace]

+druidofdark It's like he's playing as one of his producers said, "Love letters from the prison of his heart."

[@pauldirac5376]

+Pan oRoya Not to mention poor Stan, who sang so beautifully through the horn, but not in anything else in life. He went on the road with Jack Teagarden at age 16 and was introduced to booze and heroin right away, the way bands were. He never had a chance. But that sound. He sounded like what he wished he were.

It is sad that drugs/the drug lifestyle took both of these great geniuses away from us far too soon. Bill Evans, along with McCoy Tyner, was probably the most influential pianist of the latter half of the twentieth century. Stan Getz's tone is so beautiful here and also very haunting. This is a real gem and I'm glad someone posted it on here.

To me, the most enticing part of jazz is not the improvisation or the massive layering of the big bands or even the intricacies of cool jazz, it's the incredible fact jazz musicians are so transcendent in their work and they understand the true joy in playing music for music's sake, thus resulting in amazing collaborations such as The Jazz Messengers, anyone who has ever worked with Miles Davis, and this very tune. The two coolest men in all of jazz: what a musical experience unlike any other.

[@Crus072]

Incredible. The story I heard about this song is that Getz wasn't very kind to Evans while they where preparing/rehearsing. Getz didnt want to rehearse, was in a bad mood and Evans was pissed at him for it. At this point in the concert Getz makes it up with Bill, plays the most beautiful notes of the album (no doubt about it) and congratulates him with his birthday. So it's like 'Sorry Bill.. this is how I make it up to you'.
