September 15th marks the 30th anniversary of Bill Evans’ passing. Ross Porter’s interview with Bill Evans, one of the last that Evans ever gave, can be listened online at Jazz.FM91, the canadian jazz radio station.
The conversation was recorded on May 21, 1979 at Bill Evans’ appartment at New Jersey and in his car, while on the road to Manhattan. It also features excerpts of recordings of the late Bill Evans Trio(s) with bassists Scott LaFaro, Chuck Israels and Eddie Gomez (who is mistakenly announced by Porter as Scott LaFaro in “All of You”).
