Top jazz trios piano, bass, drums on vinyl?


Available on stereo LP would be preferred. Love Billy Taylor. Wish I had a chance to see him live. Are there any box sets of his works on LP? Who else?

Yes, the Billy Taylor: I Wish I Knew has a similar sound but the Billy Taylor CDs I have do not. I guest the remaster changed that. I love technical and rhythmic trio jazz like that.

On a completely different note, I am listening to David Byrne: My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. Never heard it before and is brilliant. Plan on putting some Art of Noise on later. All on vinyl of course
Thanks everyone. I forgot about Hank Jones. I have a couple on CD and forgot about them because I've been doing records so much. Will look into the other ones also.
At first glance, I got 2 Oscar Peterson LPs: Trio in Trasition and Rare Mood. I also got Money Jungle. All the pianos don't sound right on these and similar jazz recordings, like they have a weird honkey tonk on. All my classic and solo piano LPs sound correct. What's up?
The Rare Mood one was sealed and it sounds better / great but still has a little of that unexpected weird honky tonk sound. Confused.
@acman3, your observations are pretty close. The piano sound ion in transitions is much more together on the second lp that was the second recording session. Your description of the piano on the first lp matches my perception of the honky tonk being loose or slury as u put it. Great description. Shame on the sound people since I know 1965 gear can do better.
First lp was slury like he said. 2nd was better. Wish all the recordings were given more attention. iPhone can be clumsy for submissions.
Now that I got my new rega RP6, the weird older / clasic jazz piano sound / issue is gone. :)
