Recorded live on June 25, 1961, only ten days before Scott LaFaro was killed in a car crash, SUNDAY AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD was quickly released as a tribute to the late bassist. His name is prominently featured on the front cover, two of his compositions ("Gloria's Step" and "Jade Visions") bookend the album, and nearly every track features extensive bass solos. LaFaro is recognized among jazzheads as one of the handful of truly great jazz bassists and is noted for improvisational solos characterized by an internal logic and symmetry. Backed by drummer Paul Motian and Evans (whose presence is so restrained that at times he seems like a sideman on his own album), LaFaro plays with near-impossible grace and beauty. This greatly-expanded CD reissue adds four alternate takes to the original album.
