Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debby are 2 of the best live albums of any genre

+1 to this. Scott LaFaro was an incredible bassist who sadly died shortly after these recordings were made.

Also, for work inspired by Bill Evans, I would recommend Chucho Valdes' lovely solo tribute, "Bill (Evans)". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0efPOn5C4c

Add to this Portrait in Jazz and Explorations.

I’ve been listening to those four albums very regularly for 6-7 years now. For a while I listened to at least one of the four each night.

yeah, to be pedantic they aren't live albums but totally agree - I wouldn't be surprised if I've listened to portrait in jazz 500 times front to back
