Gil Evans Orchestra/Germany 1986

In 1986, the live performance that was held for promotional purposes at Hamburg’s prestigious Hall Fabric was recorded in surprisingly high quality from the local broadcast sound source, making it the first live performance that fans coveted. The orchestra is comprised of talented members such as Hiram Bullock, Bill Evans, Chris Hunter, Marilyn Mazur, Howard Johnson, and Mark Egan, and is sure to deliver high-quality performances. With the exception of Delmar Brown’s “Sometime”, it was a rare live performance that focused on Jimi Hendrix cover songs, and Hiram on guitar enlivened the live with his dynamic playing like a fish out of water. The CD has been remastered, so it is the best collector’s item that you can listen to with confidence.
