Evans, Gil -orchestra-
Great Jazz Standards
A highly recommended set from the superb Gil Evans Orchestra playing stand out arrangements of five jazz standards and a couple of originals. For this 1959 date Gil Evans displayed a 15 piece band including some great soloists such as trumpeter Johnny Coles, trombonist Curtis Fuller, the young soprano sax specialist Steve Lacy and last but not least a pair of differently great drummers like Dennis Charles and Elvin Jones. Limited edition of 300 copies.
