That's exciting, Roach. I have heard some of these for sure, but still plenty left to explore.
As far as Evans, I can certainly accept your dislike, but he really is a different player at the beginning of his output than at the middle or end. Most people know the middle Evans but you should be sure to check out Everybody Digs Bill Evans, Portrait In Jazz and Sunday At The Village Vanguard before deciding. I'll assume you have though. In which case, it's not like he needs wider exposure so dislike away.
