TheloniousI picked up a new Jazz CD yesterday, “Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall“. Seems that a ~50 year old recording of this live 1957 concert was “lost” and recently (this year) “found” by a jazz specialist at the Library of Congress. There are only a few recordings of Monk and Coltrane together, and most of the others supposedly are of lower audio quality. This recording is remarkable, however. The sound on the CD is just superb – and it is from a 50-year old tape! I just love this CD; highly recommend you check it out if you like jazz. I’m not a jazz expert (I just “know what I like”), but from all the glowing reviews, this is big. The link above takes you to the Bluenote site with more history.
