American Classical Music is a live album by American jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal. In 1984, it was re-released as Goodbye Mr. Evans.
It was recorded at San Francisco's Great American Music Hall in July 1982 and released by Shubra Productions later that year.[1][2]
In 1984, Black Lion Records released the album, everywhere but in the USA, as Goodbye Mr. Evans. The name refers to the ballad of the same title written by saxophonist Phil Woods to honor the jazz pianist Bill Evans, who had died in 1980.[3]
