Hutchison insisted on doing everything as it would have been done half a century ago, but with added perfection. "I want to have the best-sounding records in the world," he says.
ERC as it's known, reissues only from analog tape using a restored all-tube playback and cutting chain, reproducing the cover art with startling accuracy to the original. Most of what ERC reissues are long out of print, highly collectible and expensive to buy recordings. The reissues, pressed in limited numbers, quickly sell out and become collector's items themselves. Yes, they are expensive but far less so than the originals, and sonics are superb.
Bill Evans' classic “Everybody digs” gets the full valve ERC Stereo treatment courtesy of our uprated Ortofon vintage cutting system featuring bespoke letter pressed artwork unique to the Stereo release.
Recorded in December 1958 at Reeves Sound Studios, New York shortly after he left Miles Davis group, Everybody Digs was the second album to feature Bill Evans as lead. It acts as a reminder of Evans trio playing before the celebrated Sunday At The Village Vanguard (1961). Instead of near-equal interaction by all three trio members, a supportive team of drummer Philly Joe Jones and bassist Sam Jones provides a non-intrusive backdrop for the featured performer, whose inventions are cast into bolder relief than ever. The silent spaces in the ballads are stark, inviting the listener to supply the missing thought or feeling evoked by the pianists pure conceptions; the accompaniment on the up-tempo tunes is a non-obtrusive temporal flow, leaving the floor wide open to the graceful moves of the featured performer. Most memorable is the hauntingly beautiful Peace Piece which was to become the template for Miles Davis Flamenco Sketches and has since become Evans most famous historical composition.
