Description: Bill Evans - Explorations - Limited Edition 180g Jazz LP - New & Sealed - Ships Fast!!! Explorations is an album by jazz pianist Bill Evans that was originally released on the Riverside label in 1961. The album won the Billboard Jazz Critics Best Piano LP poll for 1961. David Rickert of All About Jazz wrote: "...Evans demands to be heard, seducing you with his indelibly emotional playing... The trio works magic here, breathing fresh air into standards such as 'How Deep Is the Ocean?' and 'Beautiful Love' and creating the illusion that these songs were written just so someone like Evans could play them. The highlight of the album is 'Elsa,' which is one of the most beautiful piano ballads on record." Writing for Allmusic, critic Thom Jurek said of the album: "Evans, with Paul Motian and Scott LaFaro, was onto something as a trio, exploring the undersides of melodic and rhythmic constructions that had never been considered by most... Explorations is an extraordinary example of the reach and breadth of this trio at its peak." This album is an absolute classic of American jazz piano at it's finest.
