The classic Bill Evans recordings for Riverside set the standard for and had a profound impact on almost every jazz pianist that would follow Evans. This huge 18 LP set constitutes Evans's entire Riverside output with his classic trios as well as other legendary sidemen from 1956 to 1964. This box is a testament to Evans's significance as a performer, composer, and innovator. This set is must for any true Evans aficionado.
This record comes from a inherited collection of most audiophile jazz and classical that my father spent his entire adult life putting together. All I want is for these records to end up in the hands of someone who will appreciate them. Please message me if you're interested in seeing a list of all the records.
Because of the number of records involved, I can only grade discs and jackets visually. I grade conservatively but realistically: the highest grade I will give an unsealed disc whose surfaces are pristine and unmarked is NM. A NM- grade indicates a disc with very minor visible evidence of use (usually a minor scuff or light scratch ) that should not seriously interfere with audition and may well be inaudible.
I AM willing to ship internationally, just message me if you plan on bidding and are out of the country.
Payment:
Payment is due within 7 days of auction close. I’ll do my best to ship all items within 24 hours of cleared payment.
