Bill at Bear's Lair
"I remember the night clearly. In this most-intimate basement room on the campus of UC Berkeley, Bill Evans was at his expressive best. Because of the close confines, the pianist — fully absorbed — presented a sensitive display of delicate, understated brilliance. On his signature standard, 'My Foolish Heart,' Evans progressively hunched down, ever so closely, almost to the point of becoming one with the piano. His showpiece was so moving that it practically gave me the shivers."
