Recently found the Verve CD reissue of this.  Blown away by both the music and sound quality.

Same here sometime last year when I finally found a copy.

I had a weird dream last night in which I was telling my (late) first wife that I love stereo equipment but it’s because I love music.

That’s really true.

Right now, first of the day

Oh nice association with your first wife.

I got this record together with the first CD "Monk in Action" from my wife and she always said that the cover of "Misterioso" reminds her of Hamlet....

Great music and great Johnny Griffin.

Halfway through this record and surprised so far to find that it's one of the good Herbie Mann records.

Trying to shrug off the effects of a lot of snow shoveling yesterday. I’m going to carry on with the hard swinging as that takes me away from some stiffness and ache.
