Interplay is a 1963 album from legendary jazz pianist Bill Evans, originally released on the Riverside label. Joining Evans are Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), Jim Hall (guitar), Percy Heath (bass), and Philly Joe Jones (drums).

No idea what they're saying, but it sounds great. Defining album of the goth genre, available to you as a CD. Includes the hits 'Heaven or Las Vegas' and 'Cherry-Coloured Funk'.
