Craft Recordings has announced two new titles that pay tribute to the pioneering jazz artist Bill Evans and his enduring musical contributions.

The first project is a five-CD box set and digital album, titled Everybody Still Digs Bill Evans: A Career Retrospective (1956–1980). It marks the first-ever career-spanning collection of music from the pianist, featuring over 60 tracks that spotlight Evans’ unique perspective on the piano both as a leader and co-leader.

Everybody Still Digs Bill Evans: A Career Retrospective (1956–1980) spans the pianist’s Riverside, Milestone, Fantasy, Verve, Warner Bros., and Elektra/Musician catalogs, and features Evans’ work with Tony Bennett, Cannonball Adderley, Kenny Burrell, Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Eddie Gomez, Shelly Manne, and Lee Konitz, among many others.

Produced by Nick Phillips, the five-CD collection comes housed in a fabric-wrapped, hard-cover book, containing 48 pages of photos and ephemera, as well as new liner notes from the Grammy Award-winning writer, radio host, and music journalist, Neil Tesser.
