There is nothing not to like on this two-record set from the Fantasy archives brought to new life by Messrs. Hoffman and Gray…this, their third series of 45RPM re-issues. These releases have done wonders for my greater understanding and appreciation of jazz, simply by providing the best, most enjoyable sound from landmark albums such as this. When you see the names in this quintet, you can rest assured you've got some first-rate musicians waiting to perform. Add to this the history and depth of repertoire in the Riverside label and you can see why this project just keeps on giving you great performances by great artists offered up in studio quality sound. There is something for everyone on this album and the pristine surfaces accompanied by excellent artistic arrangements and playing, set the stage for a real treat. Evans is so easy on the ears and his carefree, articulate style is mesmerizing." – Richard Foster, Hi-Fi+, Issue 43

"Bill Evans' recordings almost always received good to excellent sound, and the Analogue Productions reissues are no exception. . The 45 rpm reissues are more musical and transparent; instruments have greater three-dimensionality and frequency extremes, especially lower octaves, exhibit greater resolution and impact. Get them before they're sold out!" Myles Astor, Positive-Feedback Online

Bill Evans, best known for recording his albums as a trio with piano, bass and drums, uniquely records this 1962 album with the addition of the trumpet and guitar to create an unusual quintet alignment concentrating on standard tunes with bright tempos. Evans, along with "Philly" Joe Jones on drums, Freddie Hubbard on trumpet, Jim Hall on guitar and Percy Heath on bass, plays original versions of I'll Never Smile Again, When You Wish Upon A Star, You Go To My Head and the title track. Interplay is a uniquely valuable addition to the catalog of perhaps the most important pianist in modern jazz.
