Although all eight of the selections heard on this Verve release have been recorded on other occasions by pianist Bill Evans, these renditions hold their own. Teamed up with bassist Chuck Israels and drummer Larry Bunker (his regular trio of 1963-1965), Evans plays definitive versions of such songs as Johnny Carisi’s “Israel,” “How My Heart Sings,” “Who Can I Turn To,” and “If You Could See Me Now.” – Scott Yanow
