Song of the Day #2000

Song of the Day: Better Call Saul (“Gloria’s Step, Take 2”) [YouTube link], composed and performed by Bill Evans, was recorded live by the jazz piano great with his legendary trio, featuring Scott LaFaro on bass and Paul Motian on drums. It was released as part of “Sunday at the Village Vanguard” in October 1961, only months after LaFaro’s tragic death in an auto accident. Chuck McGill, Jimmy’s brother (portrayed by Michael McKean), places this Bill Evans vinyl on the turntable in Season 2, Episode 5 (“Rebecca”) of BCS, which premiered on March 14, 2016. Oh and btw, this is the 2000th distinct song entry in “My Favorite Songs” list, which started on 1 September 2004!
