In the late 1970s legendary pianist Bill Evans was at the peak of his career. He revolutionized the jazz trio (bass, piano, drums) by giving each part equal emphasis in what jazz historian Ted Gioia called a telepathic level of interplay. It was an ideal opportunity for a sideman, and after auditioning in 1978, Joe La Barbera was ecstatic when he was offered the drum chair, completing the trio with Evans and bassist Marc Johnson.In Times Remembered, La Barbera and co-author Charles Levin provide an intimate fly-on-the-wall peek into Evanss life, critical recording sessions, and behind-the-scenes anecdotes of life on the road. Joe regales the trios magical connection, a group that quickly gelled to play music on the deepest and purest level imaginable. He also watches his dream gig disappear, a casualty of Evanss historical drug abuse when the pianist dies in a New York hospital emergency room in 1980. But La Barbera tells this story with love and respect, free of judgment, showing Evanss humanity and uncanny ability to transcend physical weakness and deliver first-rate performances at nearly every show.
