1	Moonbeams (1962) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio Moonbeams was the first recording Bill Evans made after the death of his musical right arm, bassist Scott LaFaro. Indeed, in LaFaro, Evans found a counterpart rather than a sideman, and the music they made together over four albums showed it. Bassist Chuck Israels from Cecil Taylor and Bud Powell's bands took his place in the band with Evans and ... see all copies from $8.92! new only from $8.92!
2	The Paris Concert, Edition Two (1979) more music like this by Bill Evans Bill Evans's death in 1980 ended the career of the most influential (along with McCoy Tyner) acoustic pianist in jazz of the past 20 years. This second of two LPs features Evans, bassist Marc Johnson and drummer Paul Motian closely interacting on four of the pianist's originals, Gary McFarland's "Gary's Theme" and Miles Davis's "Nardis." The music ... see all copies from $8.88! new only from $8.88!
3	Consecration [Milestone] (2002) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio While it's true that this eight-CD box set was issued in Japan and in Europe briefly, none of its performances have been heard in any form in the United States. This is the companion piece to Milestone's previously issued eight-CD The Last Waltz. Like the previous collection, these live dates with Evans' final trio -- Marc Johnson on bass and Joe ... see all copies from $69.90! new only from $90.09!
4	Last Waltz: The Final Recordings Live (2000) more music like this by Bill Evans Trio see all copies from $105.62! new only from $105.62!
5	The Secret Sessions (1966) more music like this by Bill Evans During an 18-year period, fan Mike Harris went to the Village Vanguard whenever pianist Bill Evans appeared and privately taped his performances. More than a decade after Evans' death, Harris made all the proper legal arrangements and producer Orrin Keepnews released music from 26 different occasions on this eight-CD box set, 104 selections in all ... see all copies from $54.95! new only from $105.62!
6	Re: Person I Knew (1974) more music like this by Bill Evans Recorded at the same Village Vanguard sessions that resulted in Since We Met, this posthumous collection (first put out in 1981 and later reissued on CD) features pianist Bill Evans, bassist Eddie Gómez, and drummer Marty Morell playing material that was passed over for release at the time -- some of the songs were overly familiar, while others ... see all copies from $5.00! new only from $9.91!
7	Riverside Profiles (2006) more music like this by Bill Evans The Bill Evans volume in the Riverside Profiles series contains the standard ten selections; they are taken from his six years with the label from 1956-1962. These volumes primarily serve as budget-priced introductions to any given artist, and this one is no exception. There are four tunes here taken from the most famous Bill Evans Trio that ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $9.92!
8	Homecoming (1999) more music like this by Bill Evans A previously unreleased concert recording by the legendary Bill Evans would be great news anyway, but this one is particularly special because it documents a 1979 performance at Southeastern Louisiana University, Evans' alma mater and a place for which he had especially warm feelings. Accompanied by the young bassist Marc Johnson and drummer Joe ... see all copies from $8.90! new only from $10.06!
9	Trios/Solos (1972) more music like this by Ralph Towner with Glen Moore Towner was, in the 1970s and early '80s, the consummate ECM artist. His classical six-string and 12-string guitar playing lent itself well to Manfred Eicher's aesthetic. This abum is an odd collection of solos and trios, all played with the members of his band, Oregon (which included the late Colin Walcott of Codona). The album features Towner ... see all copies from $20.44! new only from $40.19!
10	Getting Sentimental (2003) more music like this by Bill Evans Native New Yorker Mike Harris is neither a professional musician nor a behind the scenes employee of the music industry; he has earned his living as an optical physicist. But he's someone who Bill Evans' hardcore fans should adore. Harris, himself a truly devoted fan, taped numerous Evans appearances at Manhattan's Village Vanguard in the '60s and ... see all copies from $5.98! new only from $10.80!
11 view cover	Bill Evans Album (1971) more music like this by Bill Evans On this CD reissue (which adds three "new" alternate takes to the original seven song-program), Bill Evans made his debut on electric piano, usually playing it in conjunction with his acoustic piano. Joined by bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Marty Morell, Evans performs seven of his stronger originals including "Funkallero," "The Two Lonely People ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $29.95!
12 view cover	Jazz Showcase (1956) more music like this by Bill Evans Of the initial offerings in Fantasy's Jazz Showcase series, the Bill Evans volume is probably the most valuable to the newcomer, for a number of reasons. For one, it is a good single-disc summary of The Complete Riverside Recordings box, touching down on many of his best performances as well as some of his most famous recordings, such as "Waltz ... see all copies from $3.89! new only from $9.91!
13 view cover	Music of Bill Evans (1985) more music like this by The Kronos Quartet For their second and final jazz project, the adventurous Kronos Quartet (a top classical string quartet) performed eight Bill Evans compositions, plus "Nardis" (which Evans always claimed Miles Davis stole from him). Three songs apiece add either guitarist Jim Hall or bassist Eddie Gomez. The members of Kronos (David Harrington and John Sherba on ... see all copies from $7.39! new only from $7.39!
14 view cover	Reflections (2003) more music like this by Gordon Beck see all copies from $14.34! new only from $14.34!
15 view cover	An Echoed Smile (1997) more music like this by Matt Balitsaris & Jeff Berm Since most of this CD features the duo of acoustic guitarist Matt Balitsaris (who also plays a bit of electric guitar) and vibraphonist Jeff Berman, and the originals are joined by a tune apiece from Bill Evans and Wayne Shorter, the set is sometimes reminiscent (but not derivative) of a Gary Burton-Ralph Towner set. Dave Liebman adds his soprano ... see all copies from $1.99!
16 view cover	Reflections (1991) more music like this by Warren Bernhardt A '91 quintet set alternating between good renditions of shopworn jazz standards and some extended blowing on original numbers. Bernhardt plays in a steady, sometimes vibrant manner while heading a group with tenor saxophonist and clarinetist Bob Mintzer, guitarist Chuck Loeb, bassist Jay Anderson, and drummer Jeff Hirshfield. It was cut live at ... see all copies from $9.70!
17 view cover	Play Bill Evans (2002) more music like this by Danish Radio Jazz Orchestra Bill Evans' compositions have been interpreted in countless ways through the years, but not so often by big bands. Who better than Jim McNeely, a fine pianist and one of jazz's most imaginative arrangers, to glean fresh insights from Evans' music? Leading the fine players of the Danish Radio Jazz Orchestra, McNeely sets his sights on some of Evans ... see all copies from $15.21! new only from $15.21!
18 view cover	Bill Evans Person We Knew (1994) more music like this by Larry Schneider & Andy LaVerne This duo date by tenor saxophonist Larry Schneider and pianist Andy LaVerne is a tribute to the late Bill Evans, covering both Evans' compositions as well as works by others that he recorded. Evans' problems with drug addiction throughout his adult life are all too well-known, so it almost seems like "Re: Person I Knew" is actually played as a ... see all copies from $15.16! new only from $15.16!
19 view cover	Bill Evans: Tribute to the Great Post-Bop Pianist (1990) more music like this by Paul Motian Having been Bill Evans' drummer during the pianist's prime early-'60s period, Paul Motian is the right person to record an Evans tribute album, a recording that fits right in with Motian's spate of jazz repertory releases (Monk in Motian, the On Broadway series). But the obligatory nature of the record ends there, as Motian, tenor saxophonist Joe ... see all copies from $14.19! new only from $14.19!
20 view cover	Complete Concert: Live at the Wigmore Hall, London (1997) more music like this by Phil Woods/Gordon Beck Although alto saxophone great Phil Woods made several duo sessions with pianists during the 1990s, this concert with Gordon Beck, one of the pianists from his European Rhythm Machine (the other was George Gruntz), is easily the best of the lot. The musicians take their time stretching out on timeless standards like Cole Porter's "Everything I Love ... see all copies from $44.98! new only from $44.98!
21 view cover	Complete Landmark Sessions (1984) more music like this by The Kronos Quartet From nearly the start of the group, the Kronos String Quartet has gone its own way. Although comprised of classical musicians who do not improvise, they have long been open to modern classical music, other styles and even jazz. During 1984-1985, they surprised the music world by recording a full album apiece of the music of Thelonious Monk and ... see all copies from $9.52! new only from $9.52!

24 view cover	Evans Explorations (2008) more music like this by Jed Levy Jed Levy is a veteran of the Manhattan jazz scene, having recorded with the late Jaki Byard's Apollo Stompers, Don Friedman, and Peter Leitch, in addition to leading his own sessions, most of which have been issued by the Danish label Steeplechase. On this 2007 studio date, the lyrical tenor saxophonist explores ten songs written or recorded by ... see all copies from $16.17! new only from $16.17!
