Alone Together

The duo's first album, recorded live in New York.
Jim Hall & Ron Carter, 1973

Recorded live at the Playboy Club, apparently as part of a Jazz Adventures concert series, with Dick Katz producing, it was reissued on CD in 1990 in a digitally remastered edition. AllMusic gave it 4.5 stars and the Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide (1985) three. Wikipedia notes that their version of "St. Thomas" arranges the tune for acoustic bass and guitar.
