Bill Evans Trio With Lee Konitz & Warne Marsh - Crosscurrents
Review by Bjorn Sanders
Crosscurrents is a remarkable album that showcases the unparalleled musicianship of Bill Evans Trio with Lee Konitz and Warne Marsh. Released in 1978, the album features a collection of some of the best jazz standards, including "Lover Man," "Stella By Starlight," and "Alone Together."
The album is a perfect example of how jazz can be both complex and accessible. The tracks are full of intricate melodies, complex harmonies, and intricate solos that are sure to captivate any jazz enthusiast. The trio's improvisations are masterful, and their interplay is nothing short of amazing.
What sets this album apart from other jazz albums is the way in which the musicians' individual styles blend together. Konitz and Marsh's smooth and mellow tones complement Evans' more aggressive and energetic playing style, resulting in a unique and memorable sound.
The album's production is also noteworthy. The recording quality is excellent, and the mix is well-balanced, allowing each instrument to shine through. The album's overall sound is warm and inviting, making it a joy to listen to from start to finish.
