The Colours of Chloë is the debut album by German double bassist and composer Eberhard Weber, recorded in December 1973 and released on ECM the following year.[1]
The AllMusic review by David R. Adler awarded the album 4½ stars, stating, "Eberhard Weber's first record remains his most well-known and influential. An ambitious work of what might be called symphonic jazz, The Colours of Chloë helped to define the ECM sound—picturesque, romantic, at times rhythmically involved, at others minimalistic and harmonically abstruse... People will disagree about whether The Colours of Chloë stands the test of time, but Weber's aesthetic played a significant role in the creative music of the '70s, attracting a fair share of emulators."[2]
