The Bill Evans Trio's 1973 concert in Tokyo was his first recording for Fantasy and it produced yet another Grammy-nomination for the presentation. With bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Marty Morell, this LP mixes upbeat songs with overlooked gems, familiar standards, and surprisingly, only one Evans composition, the demanding 'T.T.T.T. (Twelve Tone Tune Two).' 'The Tokyo Concert' reveals the trio functioning at a high level, with each member by this time able to anticipate whatever direction the music might take, with a fresher and more colourful Evans. It should be definitively considered an essential part of his discography.
