My favourite jazz album was recorded 60 years ago today, on June 25, 1961 at the Village Vanguard in New York. Bill Evans's great trio, with Scott La Faro & Paul Motian. Great music captured from the five sets the trio played that Sunday.

Here's the Bill Evans Trio at The Village Vanguard.

"It is not going too far to see this short-lived trio as redefining the nature of the jazz rhythm section."

Producer Orrin Keepnews checks in with the trio.

The firm of Elliott & Fry was founded in 1863 by Joseph John Elliott & Clarence Edmund Fry, who opened their first premises at 55 Baker Street. The @NPGLondon has over 10,000 negatives in their collection. Here are some of my favourites.

Remembering Milt Hinton - The Judge - on his birthday 🎂🎉
Besides being a great jazz bassist, Hinton was a fine photographer. I'm listening to Here Swings the Judge, from 1975, while I search out some of his best photos. The cover photo is by Les Line.
Image
Milt Hinton took the great photo of Ben Webster on the back of this album. Of course he had access to the jazz greats, but Hinton had such a great eye! Image

"Good photographs are there to be listened to as well as looked at; the better the photograph the more there is to hear. The best jazz photographs are those saturated in the sound of their subject."

Humphrey Jennings by Lee Miller

@NPGLondon
I didn't know Jennings; he's a documentary filmmaker. Lindsay Anderson in 1954 called him "the only real poet that British cinema has yet produced."
But Miller seems more interested in the smoke...
