This 1959 release had a profound impact on jazz history and features Scott LaFaro on bass and Paul Motian on drums.
Bill Evans made two albums in 1959 that had a profound impact on jazz history - Kind of Blue with Miles Davis and this debut disc by Evans' first permanent working unit. The fluidity and interdependence these three developed forever changed the face of the piano trio, introducing new notions of shading, balance, and poetic lyricism, not to mention the superhuman virtuosity of the tragically short-lived bassist Scott LaFaro.
