So I went out to the cemetery on this All Souls Day to visit grandparents, and stopped by the site where Bill and his brother Harry are buried under a large, spreading oak.
There were fresh flowers in a vase with water next to Bill's headstone.
Someone still cares.

one LP that I didn't like a lot. My only preference is for his small combo playing over his solo efforts. What a sad life at times though. I guess that comes with a lot of artists. The only thing that really bothered me was one of his long time girl friends that committed suicide under the subway after Evans sort of left her. Arrrgh.

Any season is perfect for Bill Evans.
