But still a good set from the Vanguard. The sound quality is not great, but it does document another nice session by the Bill Evans trio. Songs include Emily. It was Bill Evans, playing his 'Waltz for Debby.' Harris drove directly to a record store and bought all of Evans' recordings. It was the beginning of a lifelong passion that would lead Harris to surreptitiously record his idol at New York's Village Vanguard dozens of times from the mid-'60s to the late '70s.
