Editorial Reviews

Dave Milbourne - Toronto Jazz

"A winner! George Evans is one of the most consummate male vocalists on the Canadian jazz scene. A superior recording."

Product Description

"Eyes For You" is the highly anticipated follow-up to George Evans' successful 2001 release "From Moment To Moment." With a song list derived from the best of George's current club repertoire as requested live at the Senator in June of 2002, "Eyes For You" features the core rhythm section from the previous disc, with Reg Schwager on guitar, Neil Swainson on bass, Jerry Fuller on drums, and bringing into the ensemble the dynamic piano of Mark Eisenman. Eyes For You is a tasty 12 track, 60-minute program of standards and over-looked gems. Note: These are Jerry Fuller's final studio recordings.

4.0 out of 5 stars A winner..., April 21, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Eyes For You (Audio CD)

George Evans' smooth vocalizing simply evokes good taste and a mellow timelesness. Backed by a tight five-piece combo, he has put together a first-rate collection of 12 tunes -- there's not a dud in the bunch. High points include Sinatra's "I'm a Fool to Want You," which is turned into a swirling jazz waltz, and a plaintive, haunting reading of "Alfie." Like good scotch, this disc is smooth and potent at the same time.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Canadian Jazz vocalist gets better and better...., November 21, 2002

What a wonderful selection of tunes! I really like this CD.
Great rendition of ALFIE, and I really like his versions of
"I'm a fool to want you" and "Spring will be a little late this year"
...and I hear he's been nominated for this year's "Canadian Jazz
Awards" Bravo!

I enjoyed this but again it lacks what I'm looking for. I knew Jerry Fuller very well and am sorry he's gone. We did a lot of playing together. When I lived in Canada I thought I knew alot but NY teaches one that they know little and opens up your ears. It's all here. Decent cd.
