Bill Evans Trio - Portrait In Jazz (Crystal Clear Vinyl LP)

Portrait in Jazz was Bill Evans' third album as a leader, following New Jazz Conceptions (1956) and Everybody Digs Bill Evans (1958). It was also Evans' first LP as a leader with the talented bassist Scott LaFaro. Their superb interaction is obvious from the very first tune, and Evans was surely aware of that. The Evans-LaFaro collaboration would reach a climax with their June 1961 club recordings at the Village Vanguard in New York. LaFaro would die in a car accident soon after (on July 6, 1961), at the age of 25. THE COMPLETE ALBUM + 2 BONUS TRACKS - 180-GRAM - CRYSTAL CLEAR VINYL - LIMITED EDITION
