Blue in green on electric Jazz Guitar.
It has long been speculated that pianist Bill Evans wrote "Blue in Green", even though the LP and most jazz fakebooks credit Davis only with its composition. In his autobiography, Davis maintains that he alone composed the songs on Kind of Blue. The version on Evans' trio album Portrait in Jazz, recorded in 1959, credits the tune to 'Davis-Evans'. Earl Zindars, in an interview conducted by Win Hinkle, said that "Blue in Green" was 100-percent written by Bill Evans

  • Why do people keep playing this as a ballad? The playing was good but it was too up beat for me.

  • @b4nt2k miles claimed he wrote "donna lee" in his autobiography. i dunno. all blues .how about "four"? that's a pretty "good composition" from any angle.

  • Zindars also told Hinkle that Bill wrote the piece in Zindars' East Harlem apartment. See page 82 of "How My Heart Sings", the biography of Bill Evans. It's currently viewable in Google Books.
