#BillEvans birthday is coming up on August 16th, so I may post a few thoughts over the coming days (and welcome others to add theirs). Evans died on September 15, 1980--leaving a complex, brilliant legacy. Great releases keep coming. A live 2022 release (recorded in 1979), #InnerSpirit, is joyous, often exuberant. Even tracks like Suicide is Painless (Theme from M*A*S*H). The track mirrors Evans' life & death from terrible addictions.
