Bill Evans Trio Portrait In Jazz (Crystal Clear)

Portrait in Jazz was Bill Evans' third album as a leader, following New Jazz Conceptions (1956) and Everybody Digs Bill Evans (1958). It was also Evans’ first album with the talented bassist Scott La Faro.
The repertoire here consists basically of standards (all of them treated in Evans’ very personal style) plus two originals: "Peri’s Scope" - premiered on Portrait In Jazz, Evans wouldn’t record it again until 1967 - and "Blue In Green", first recorded earlier that year with Miles Davis on Kind Of Blue.
