[Rednamalas1]

P.U.L.S.E

 

[Uncle Erik]

Waltz for Debby, Bill Evans Trio

I have (and love) other live recordings, but this is the one I keep coming back to again and again. Not only is the music stunningly good, but the crowd ambiance/noise adds a level of realism you seldom find elsewhere. Further, the SACD version is exceptionally well recorded.

I hate to admit this, but I've been listening to speakers (

) quite a bit lately. I'll drop this one on the AMT-1s and step into the club. Waltz for Debby on planar dipoles is about as close to live as it gets.
