Bill Evans
Spring Leaves
Compil. FR 1976 on Milestone label
Jazz (Cool Jazz)
Sides 1 and 2 recorded December 28, 1959; Side 3 and 4 February 2, 1961 Side 1 and 2 originally issued as Portrait In Jazz. The two takes of "Autumn Leaves" first appeared on Riverside 315 and stereophonic Riv. 1162 versions of the album - the early stereo equipement having malfunctioned during the recording of the first-preference performance. Side 3 and 4 originally issued as Explorations (Riv. 351). "The Boy Next Door" was not released at that time because the artist was not fully satisfied with it; the producer has chosen to include it now to demonstrate how well even a self-considered lesser Evans effort stands the test of time. Original recordings and this reissue produced by Orrin Keepnews. Original recording engineers : Side 1 and 2 - Jack Higgins (Reeves Sound Studios, New York City); Sides 3 and 4 - Bill Stoddard (Bell Sound Studios, New York City).
