‘Waltz for Debby’ is a live album by jazz pianist and composer Bill Evans and his trio consisting of Evans, bassist Scott LaFaro, and drummer Paul Motian. It was released in 1962 and received numerous 5-star reviews. The album was the fourth and final effort from the unit—LaFaro died in a car accident just ten days after the recording was made. The title track, a musical portrait of Evans’ niece, became a staple of his live repertoire in later years. It originally appeared as a solo piano piece on Evans’ debut album ‘New Jazz Conceptions’. It remains what is likely Evans’ most well-known song, one that he would play throughout his career. This album is widely considered to be one of the best in the Evans canon, and the type of emotive interplay between the musicians that at some points seemed almost deconstructed has served as a model for piano trio play.
