The interplay that caught the imagination of jazz audiences remained a hallmark throughout Evans’ career, which saw him in trios with other top names including Philly Joe Jones, Eddie Gomez, Jack DeJohnette and many more. Evans recorded more than fifty albums as leader. His notable collaborations included recordings with such artists as Cannonball Adderley, Tony Bennett, Toots Thielemans, Jim Hall and Stan Getz. Evans received five Grammy awards as well as a posthumously awarded Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award following his death. September 15th marks the 30th year since his passing.
