Trio 64 - SACD (Single Layer)

*** SHM - Super High Material
*** SACD:Sound:stereo
*** Japan-Import

Two and a half years after the untimely death of Scott LaFaro, who left a lasting mark on the Bill Evans Trio with his innovative bass playing, the recordings took place with Gary Peacock succeeding him on bass. Still with them: Paul Motian on drums. And even in this new line-up, the trio succeeded in playing with sensitivity and depth that moves the listener. In the first recording of the three-part series for Verve Records, the focus was on the interpretation of standards such as 'Little Lulu,' 'A Sleepin' Bee' or Irving Berlin's 'Always.' Since the recordings took place shortly before Christmas '63, the Christmas classic also crept in: 'Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.'

This title is an SHM SACD. This format is the further development of the single-layer SACD and uses a particularly light-transparent plastic (Super High Material). It allows a much better readability of the pit-land structures on the surface than is possible with hybrid SACDs. Universal's SHM SACDs are generally re-digitized to DSD from the albums' master tapes without any changes. SHM SACDs can be played on any SACD player.
