Bill Evans Trio - Five (theme) / Elsa - 19 Mar 65 (1 of 11)

[GustavUppercut]

This is my favorite bass solo of all time! The way he hints and refers to the original melody is just pure genius and he makes it feel like the notes he chooses are the only right succession of the previous one.

[kenjames64]

@xlowpitch it was part of an official release, I believe, but I'm not sure if it's still in print. I can't find it on Amazon.

I think about three or four, including this one.
