Bill was a stange dude. He doesn't seem to enjoying himself at all, just going through the motions. Still he plays brillantly, particularly the intro to HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN. Towards the end of his life, he git serious about playing again. His last albums are superb.
With NHØP, the Dane and Alan Dawson, the Brit playing seamlessly with Lee and the brilliant Bill Evans in this wonderful live concert. This is exquisite jazz from the past folks that will never age. Toodeloo’s & Cheers!
IMO NHOP was closest to LaFaro out of all the bassists Bill Evans worked with. NHOP didn't quite have the facility of LaFaro but took some good risks. Would have been fascinating to see them as a working trio for a while and develop the rapport.
Alan was tremendous ,.. also a professor at Berklee.. Boston.. found this little Bio on him ua-cam.com/video/F_qMaXr_Vzw/v-deo.html in this clip hes playing Gretsch RB ..looks like starlight Sparkle drum wrap.. which is the same set I have.. its rare and was produced by Gretsch from late 50's till around 61 just about 2-3 catalogs worth..
Alan Dawson, criminally underrated...
Agree. Alan Dawson was a genious !!!!
Not necessarily "underrated," but perhaps overlooked. Great musician, great teacher, and most importantly, a great man!
i would say that among drummers those who know know….. alan dawson was a great

Alan Dawson!!- the professor of jazz drums! One of the most elegant drummers of all time! . Unbelievable skill with the brush on the skins!
That open by Bill at 00:25 is classic Bill sound, so beautifully mysterious
I still marvel at Evans playing. And Lee so UN-Charlie Parker

Yes! It’s his school, to be too cool. Toward the end, I hope none of us are still acting cool!

NHOP looks like a teenager. Amazing. For a minute there I thought I was seeing reincarnated Scotty La Faro. My eyesight's bad.
@@nancyeckroad-haney7309 You’re right there is some likeness. Be well & Cheers!
@@ronaldunkel2681 Bill and Scotty had such a profound musical relationship, I don't think Bill ever recovered from the loss.
@@nancyeckroad-haney7309 Good point Nancy, you are probably correct. Be safe, G’day & Cheers!
Konitz calls Alan Dawson's name before the first screen and introduces "A New Boy" to Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, but unfortunately it's cut off.
👍👍👍👍🙂

Dear ebjazz,
Sad to see the Bud Powell videos taken down, is there another place I can watch them?
