The Poll Winners label is devoted to the reissue of albums that received the maximum 5-Star review ratings in the iconic jazz magazine DownBeat, this release features the complete LP Undercurrent (United Artists UAS 1500), which was Bill Evans' first duet collaboration with Jim Hall. In addition to the tracks from the original LP, we have added the only two known alternate takes, as well as a full solo piano session by Evans taped just a few weeks before Undercurrent. This unaccompanied session marked the pianist's return to the recording studios after bassist Scott LaFaro's sudden death in July of 1961.
Includes a comprehensive 12-page booklet.
