Incredible writing by the Author, Steve Silberman. Evans was such a tragic figure. It's hard to reconcile his lifestyle with the beauty of his piano playing.

Incredible writing by the Author, Steve Silberman. Evans was such a tragic figure. It's hard to reconcile his lifestyle with the beauty of his piano playing. I'm going through a similar obsession phase with the earworm "Blue in Green"; another Miles / Evans collaboration. Evans was both a student and master of a framework that simultaneously combined chromatic melodies, complex rhythms, and non-standard chord progressions... a formula that ultimately haunted him to the grave.
