'Out of the Cool' is brilliant - just what you'd expect from a innovator like Gil Evans. Worth the cost of this compilation alone - which is just as well, because... 'Into the Hot' is decidedly not so hot. Apparently this recording had nothing to do with Evans, apart from maybe one or two musicians he'd worked with previously. It was the record company's bright idea to put Gil Evans' name on the cover. So, buyer beware - if you're fan of Gil Evans, go ahead and buy this, you won't regret it, but don't expect 2 great CDs...
