FAQ

Does Bill Evans play alone here?
Yes. Evans played every part himself and layered several tracks, so he is in "conversation" with himself, hence the title.

Is this the original pressing?
It is a German pressing from the year of release, 1978. The first edition came out at the same time in the US with the same catalogue number BSK 3177.

What does Media NM- / Cover VG+ mean?
NM- (Near Mint minus) for the record means close to new with at most minimal signs of use. VG+ (Very Good Plus) for the sleeve means light wear. All grades are explained on our Vinyl Grading page.

Do you have more Bill Evans records?
Yes, for example Bill Evans – You Must Believe In Spring and Bill Evans – At The Montreux Jazz Festival. More titles are in our Jazz collection.
