Review
Long considered a classic and a revelation to listeners who had taken guitarist Jim Hall for granted, this set of duets with bassist Ron Carter (reissued on CD) has near-telepathic communication between the two musicians and quiet music full of inner tension and fire. Hall and Carter brought in an original apiece and also collaborated on six standards, including "St. Thomas," "Softly As in a Morning Sunrise," "Autumn Leaves," and "Alone Together." Introspective and thought-provoking music.

Reseña
Considerado durante mucho tiempo un clásico y una revelación para los oyentes que habían dado por sentado al guitarrista Jim Hall, este conjunto de dúos con el bajista Ron Carter (reeditado en CD) tiene una comunicación casi telepática entre los dos músicos y una música tranquila llena de tensión interior y fuego. Hall y Carter trajeron una pieza original y también colaboraron en seis estándares, incluyendo "St. Thomas", "Softly As in a Morning Sunrise", "Autumn Leaves" y "Alone Together". Música introspectiva y que invita a la reflexión.
