1950's and Early 60's recorded solo piano recordin

I have quite a few CD's from Bill Evans, Brubeck, Guaraldi etc. Any good solo recordings from this era stereo or mono?

I really like the Mingus tracks on the his piano LP as well. Very expressive. I have heard many fine recordings from later periods, but it seems that, especially eighties and 90s, piano recordings started sounding too bright, maybe more "new age" sounding. I like the dark, haunting sound of especially early European recorded performances

Three of my favorite jazz piano recordings.
