At Shelly's Manne-Hole catches the Bill Evans Trio on a Hollywood club stage in May 1963, relaxed, swinging and quietly brilliant. It was his final album for Riverside.
Two years after the death of bassist Scott LaFaro, Evans had rebuilt his trio with Chuck Israels on bass and the newly arrived Larry Bunker on drums. Recorded live over two nights and produced by Orrin Keepnews, this set shows a band finding its own chemistry, less about intense three-way conversation and more about lightness, groove and pure lyricism.
Isn't It Romantic? opens the set at a jaunty clip, Evans voicing the melody with crisp, sparkling chords. The Boy Next Door is gentle and affectionate, while 'Round Midnight is taken slow and deep, the room hushed around him. Stella By Starlight revisits familiar territory with fresh harmonic twists, and Blues In 'F' lets the trio dig into a looser, earthier groove. Bunker's brushwork keeps everything feather-light.
The club atmosphere is part of the charm: you can sense the clink of glasses and the attentive quiet of a crowd that knew it was hearing something special.
Often overshadowed by the Village Vanguard recordings, this is a warm, inviting album in its own right, and an ideal way into Evans's mid-sixties sound.
