I pretty much agree with the writer here. BM and PM should transcribe some Evans sides and play 'em backwards and forwards.I didn't always worship at the Altar of Evans. I played in a quartet with a piano guy back in thr 60s who played in that sparse architectural style with a lot of way-open chords, and it drove me nuts. But that was me, groping around for changes. :-)
That cited Costa recording has Evans playing some very swinging, two-fisted, meaty ensemble work though. But there's no argument here anyway the BE advanced "the art of the trio" to a whole other level.
