Review by Shar Keshi

Idol Of The Flies, the collaborative album by Jimmy Knepper and Bill Evans, is a timeless piece of jazz music that showcases the talents of two masterful musicians. The album features a collection of intricate and complex compositions that demonstrate the duo's virtuosity and creativity.

Knepper's trombone work is the standout feature of the album, with his smooth and melodic playing style perfectly complementing Evans' delicate piano arrangements. The duo's chemistry is evident throughout the album, with each track showcasing their ability to effortlessly blend and improvise together.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Blues Up, Down, and All Around," which features a lively and upbeat tempo that perfectly captures the energy and spirit of the blues. Another notable track is "Idol Of The Flies," a hauntingly beautiful composition that showcases the duo's ability to create a melancholic and introspective mood.
