The Bill Evans Trio - Moon Beams - Analogue Productions 45rpm LP

180-Gram 45 RPM Double LP — AAA Analog

Bill Evans was left reeling by the accidental death of his brilliant bassist Scott LaFaro in mid-1961 and didn't feel ready to record with a new bassist until nearly a year later. When he entered the studio in May and June of 1962 with bassist Chuck Israels and drummer Paul Motian, the “second trio” produced material for two of Evans's most popular albums. Moon Beams collects the ballad material from those sessions — some of Evans's most introspective playing, his sense of loss apparent but lifted by Israels' power and empathy.
