Customer Reviews:

great music, spotty recording.......2004-05-11

I love the music on this album. The sound is so warm and inviting, I always want to turn up the volume and immerse myself completely in the music. But unfortunately if I do that I hear the noisy hiss, especially anytime the guitar's playing. I don't mind the background noise (glasses jingling, etc.) from the club, to me that just adds atmosphere. But the noisy hiss on the guitar is a bummer.
Anyway, that's just a nitpick. The album is great, I'm very glad to own it. I just listen to it with the volume at moderate level or else with the treble turned down or else with the volume cranked but listening to it from the next room.
Still, if one of these days someone found a way to rerelease this album with a cleaned-up sound, I'd be very grateful!

it smokes.......2000-06-29

i found (alone together) a fantastic piece of duo jazz, an inspiration to would be guitarists on how to comp and play single line solos and make the grooves sound full and succinct.as a guitarist myself im always interested in hearing really good players, and these two are two of the best at what they do.

One of the best cool jazz performance ever recorded........2000-01-23

Cool jazz at its best. Hall's clean tone and Carter's wood bass softly knit up song by song. Each note is very carefully played. I found one of the most beautiful harmony of string instruments in this CD.

Private conversations between two jazz giants..........1999-09-02

Conversations between two jazz giants. Two string instruments make an amazing harmony, and sounds like one instrument. Two sounds completely melt together. Smoking jazz night in a club.

Attraction of string instruments........1999-05-02

Giants of modern jazz, Jim Hall and Ron Carter's duo. This CD gives you an idea of how to play the guitar for rythm section and how to play the bass for lead section. Sounds of the two string instruments melt together and create a soft and beautiful harmony. Excellent CD. 'Click' 'click'
