		Jim Hall's creative output over the intervening years has continued to emphasize improvisation in duos and trios, as well as challenging arrangements for larger forces.

	SoundStage! Jim Hall - Concierto
		When jazz guitar veteran Jim Hall entered Rudy Van Gelder's New Jersey studio in April of 1975, little did he realize that some 29 years later the album he was about to record would be given the full-monty Ultradisc UHR Gain 2 hybrid SACD treatment from Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs.
		Joining Hall at the session were alto saxophonist Paul Desmond, trumpeter Chet Baker, pianist Sir Roland Hanna (one of the fine unsung pianists that dot jazz history), bassist Ron Carter,and drummer Steve Gadd (whose name was just beginning to appear on both jazz and rock albums).
		The piano is clearly rendered if still a bit too boxy-sounding, while the rhythm section, and Hall, are clustered between two speakers in a fat-mono sort of arrangement.
