BILL EVANS - JIM HALL UNDERCURRENT + 6 BONUS TRACKS

Hall, with whom he had already recorded as a sideman on
previous albums by John Lewis and Gunther Schuller. In
addition to the tracks from the original LP, the only two
known alternate takes has been added, as well as a full
solo piano session by Evans taped just a few weeks before
