Pianist/composer/arranger Bill Evans released a handful of albums in the late 70s with a revolving cast of musicians. This 1979 release featured support from Harpist Toots Thielemans, Bassist Marc Johnson, Drummer Eliot Zigmund and horn player Larry Schneider. Credited on the spine as a Bill Evans title - Toots Thielemans name is featured on the album cover. Warner Brothers distributed this album as (Cat#: 3293-2) it is a hodge podge of quality, not up to Evans' previous standards. Authenticated on discogs.com
