Evolution (Teddy Charles album)

Evolution is an album by jazz vibraphonist and pianist Teddy Charles recorded in 1953 and 1955 for the Prestige label.

[1][2] The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated "Although somewhat overlooked in the jazz history books, vibraphonist Teddy Charles was for a period an important participant in the early Third Stream movement, using aspects of classical music to revitalize West Coast-style jazz...

This session alternates cookers with sensitive ballads and is one of the better recorded showcases for Charles' vibes.

Recommended".
