Title: The Individualism of Gil Evans (Verve Vault Series)
Artist: Gil Evans
Label: Verve
Product Type: VINYL LP
UPC: 199957337427
Genre: Rock
Release Date: 2026-07-10
Number of Discs: 1
Additional Details: 180 GRAM VINYL
Released in 1964 on Verve, The Individualism of Gil Evans stands as one of arranger-composer Gil Evans' most compelling works, showcasing some of the finest music of his career. The album blends Evans' originals and Miles Davis collaborations with inspired interpretations, all rendered through his distinctive big band lens. A core group of musicians, including Johnny Coles, Steve Lacy, Jimmy Cleveland, Tony Studd, Bill Barber, Elvin Jones, and Paul Chambers, lend a remarkable consistency of texture and mood. Evans himself plays piano throughout, his touch especially poignant on "The Barbara Song," where a sense of deep pathos is underscored by Shorter's expressive tenor. From the brooding atmosphere of "Time of the Barracudas" to the one-chord intensity of "El Toreador," the album highlights Evans' mastery of tone, space, and orchestral nuance. The Verve Vault series is always mastered from analog tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
Tracks:
1.1 Barbara Song
1.2 Las Vegas Tango
1.3 Flute Song/Hotel Me
1.4 Toreador
