Sketches of Spain — 1960

A lush orchestral collaboration with Gil Evans blending jazz and Spanish classical. Gorgeous and singular. A beloved record. Not the headline release, but a genuine highlight.

On vinyl: The original pressing is a collector's piece; a modern remaster is the sensible route.
