With his second album, Everybody Digs Bill Evans, the pianist re-invented the role of his instrument in jazz. Over 60 years later it remains as fresh as when it was first released, and is the ideal first step into Evans's discography.

The revolution that Evans represented was a quiet one, introducing a more impressionistic approach, which starts to crystallise on Everybody Digs…. In particular Evans had come up with own way of voicing block chords, which along with his refined pedalling gave the sense of chords hanging in the air, as can be heard on the slow tracks like Young and Foolish and What is there to Say?. Aside from the wisp of an Epilogue, Evans’s sole original composition is the unique Peace Piece, one of the most transcendental recordings in jazz (and a big reason why I chose this over the Village Vanguard recordings), with a strong classical influence.
