This release presents the very best performances from the legendary 1961 Village Vanguard sets by the Bill Evans Trio. It would be the last music recorded by this formation of the trio, with Scott LaFaro on bass, and Paul Motian on drums, as LaFaro died ten days later in a car crash, on July 6, 1961, at the age of 25. Evans, who loved LaFaro’s playing, would take a long hiatus before forming a new trio.
