Originally both inspired and daunted by Gil Evans, Mike Gibbs has always developed his own sound so this centenary tribute is fascinating.
The reworkings of Bilbao Song, Las Vegas tango etc capture Gil’s unique sound set against Mike’s arrangements of Ramblin’ and St Louis Blues on a beautifully recorded album.
