Triple Libra is a great introduction to Jazz influenced music.It features a very young Martin Taylor playing guitar and Peter Ind on double bass, who studied with Lenny Tristano in New York in the 1950's.
The whole album is breathtaking and displays a remarkable almost telepathic connection between the two musicians. There are some jazz standards ,some pieces by more contemporary artists like Chick Corea and some great original pieces as well.
It was recorded in London the early 1980s and is still available on the WAVE record label.
I was even lucky enough to hear the original masters over the studio monitors as our keyboard player was under Peter's tuition at the time it had just been recorded.
An absolute undiscovered classic.
