Bill Evans Trio Explorations

Bill Evans Trio Explorations on 180g 45RPM 2LP: Mastered by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman at AcousTech Mastering (AAA) Analog from Original Master Tapes, Pressed at QRP

The second album by the original Bill Evans group was recorded after the pianist, bassist Scott LaFaro, and drummer Paul Motian had spent a year working together and honing the telepathy that established a new standard for trio interaction. Featuring intimate readings of several standards, plus three compositions from the jazz world that became synonymous with the trio’s sound, and with ample space for LaFaro’s virtuosity to shine, the album was cited by Evans years later as among his own favorite recordings.
