Notes:

Gatefold cover with fully laminated front and back. Regular, beige/brown CTI labels. A different variation with green labels can be found [url=https://www.discogs.com/Bill-Evans-Montreux-II/release/5769845]here[/url].

Upon close inspection, it is visible that the matrix/runout etchings on the B-side were initially etched incorrectly and then corrected: what was etched as 87655 has visibly been corrected to 87657. Of note is that what [url=https://www.discogs.com/Bill-Evans-Montreux-II/release/5769845]RVG[/url] initially etched, 87655, is also the matrix number used in the 1970 CTI release by Joe Farrell: “[url=https://www.discogs.com/Joe-Farrell-Quartet-Joe-Farrell-Quartet/release/5836445]Joe Farrell Quartet[/url]”.

Recorded at the Casino De Montreux, Switzerland, on June 19th, 1970.

The VAN GELDER stamp in the matrix/runout details points to [url=https://www.discogs.com/artist/252966-Rudy-Van-Gelder]Rudy van Gelder[/url] as the engineer that cut the lacquer.
