THELONIOUS MONK & JOHN COLTRANE Thelonious Monk With John Coltrane (Rare 1961 French original 6-track mono LP on a black & silver Jazzland label, originally recorded in New York between 1957 & '58. Wilbur Ware,''Shadow'' Wilson, Coleman Hawkins, Gigi Gryce, Ray Copeland & Art Blakey all perform, albeit in two separate sessions, where Coltrane lends his incredible expertise to the Monk classics Ruby My Dear, Off Minor, Nutty, Epistrophy & more, front laminated flipback picture sleeve. Tough to find in this condition at all, there are no tears or writing & the cover remains Excellent with all text clearly legible, the flipbacks secure & the panels to both sides clean. The vinyl too is fantastic & an Excellent example, with very few signs of play. Recommended JLP46)
