Hi all, I was hoping that somebody could recommend other songs Bill Evans performed in the style of "The Dolphin" from the album "From Left to Right". I can best describe it as short stabbing rhythmic left hand chords over a very melodic right hand? Thanks in advance, Niall

"Dolphin Dance" is a different song by Herbie Hancock. "The Dolphin" is by Luíz Eça and has a bossa nova rhythm. Kenny Werner and Toots Thielemans also play it.
