This classic piano/ guitar duo album between Bill Evans and Jim Hall has had several label reincarnations, frstly on United Artists and Solid State, and then fnally on Blue Note.

"Other than four piano solos from April 4, 1962, this set was pianist Bill Evans' frst recordings after a hiatus caused by bassist Scott LaFaro's tragic death. The frst of two meetings on record in a duo format with guitarist Jim Hall, the collaborations are often exquisite. Both Evans and Hall had introspective and harmonically advanced styles along with roots in hard-swinging bebop. There is more variety than expected on this fne set with some cookers, ballads, waltzes, and even hints at classical music." Scott Yanow, AllMusic
