Monk-------- At the It Club----- ( LP4 Mosaic )

Gallop's Gallop just finished playing. A bit of a mess but it has that edge as a result. I had the French 2CD set which mirrored the original release. I miss it's editing but not it's sound, which was muddy. This Mosaic set really has as much of Monk's quartet as you might need. Great tunes, well recorded.

:tup I'll be giving that one another spin today, along with the RRK and Sun Ship.

Now spinning Wynton Kelly/Paul Chambers Vee Jay CD1. The Paul Chambers 'Go' session.

Chu Berry set --------discs 3 and 4

Unfailing good set. I'd have like a little more surface noise to give some added crispness to the high end. Don't get me wrong , it sounds fine but having heard 78s of some of this material there is more life to be heard if you're prepared to hear some surface noise. None the less high enjoyable set.
