Our Take

Ah, the enchanting duo of Bill Evans and Jim Hall graces us once again with their timeless masterpiece "Undercurrent" on a limited edition white vinyl. The record, first released in 1962, continues to captivate listeners with its delicate interplay of piano and guitar that is as smooth as a cup of Earl Grey tea on a rainy London afternoon.

Evans' piano playing is nothing short of magical, with each note floating effortlessly like a feather in the wind. Hall's guitar work, on the other hand, is like a fine wine that only gets better with age, adding depth and richness to each track.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "My Funny Valentine," setting the tone for what is to come. As the melodies weave and intertwine, one can't help but be transported to a dimly lit jazz club in Soho, sipping on a gin and tonic while the music washes over you.

Tracks like "I Hear A Rhapsody" and "Dream Gypsy" showcase the virtuosity of both musicians, with Evans and Hall playing off each other like a well-oiled machine. The chemistry between the two is undeniable, creating a symbiotic relationship that elevates the music to new heights.

Overall, "Undercurrent" is a must-have for any jazz aficionado, a timeless classic that will never go out of style. So grab your monocle, pour yourself a glass of champagne, and let Bill Evans and Jim Hall serenade you into a state of pure bliss. Cheers, old chaps!
