Evans played the first half of the Town Hall concert with just bassist Chuck Israels and drummer Arnie Wise, and the second half with an orchestra. The orchestra performed four Al Cohn-arranged tunes: \"Willow Weep for Me\" and \"What Kind of Fool Am I\" as well as Evans' originals \"Funkallero\" and \"Waltz for Debby.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSeeking to offer definitive audiophile grade versions of some of the most historic and best jazz records ever recorded, Verve Label Group and Universal Music Enterprises' audiophile Acoustic Sounds vinyl reissue series utilizes the skills of top mastering engineers and the unsurpassed production craft of Quality Record Pressings.
