2000 US limited edtion - Pianist Bill Evans and guitarist Jim Hall shared an introspective, impressionistic playing style and they come together perfectly here. Both can also swing hard when they want to...and they do here on occassion. A beautiful session and the two obviously felt so as well -- they would record together again. sealed

The piano of Bill Evans and the guitar of Jim Hall. The symbiotic relationship these two shared is much evidenced in this 1962 meeting of the improvisational minds. Both artists, keeping time and melody in their heads, interpret classics such as 'My Funny Valentine', 'I Hear A Rhapsody', and 'Darn That Dream' in ways only these two geniuses were capable. Here the sum is greater than its parts, and the parts are two of jazz's most melodic players. This pressing comes in a handsome gatefold sleeve with the original liner notes
