Alone Together is a live album by Jim Hall and Ron Carter, released in 1972.

AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow:
Long considered a classic and a revelation to listeners who had taken guitarist Jim Hall for granted, this set of duets with bassist Ron Carter (reissued on CD) has near-telepathic communication between the two musicians and quiet music full of inner tension and fire. Hall and Carter brought in an original apiece and also collaborated on six standards, including “St. Thomas,” “Softly As in a Morning Sunrise,” “Autumn Leaves,” and “Alone Together.” Introspective and thought-provoking music.
