Bill Evans Trio - Explorations (180g 2LP 45RPM Analogue Productions)

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\u2019s sounds, and with ample space for LaFaro\u2019s virtuosity to shine, the album was cited by Evans years later as among his own favorite recordings.\n\n\u2713 Bill Evans Trio \u2014 Explorations\n\u2713 Individual title from The Bill Evans Riverside Recordings Box Set \n\u2713 180-gram 45 RPM double LP\n\u2713 Mastered by Kevin Gray & Steve Hoffman at AcousTech Mastering AAA analog from original master tapes\n\nVinyl Playlist:\n1.
