Prompted by the news that this landmark is being reissued in the Tone Poet series:

I have the two-CD set, and I've made a six-song playlist that mirrors the original LP's sequencing.  IMO, hearing the music this way works better than listening to the tunes in chronological order (as on the CDs).  Gotta respect the integrity of the album!  . . .  Well, you don't have to.  But I like to.

Really a landmark Item but for me NOT at those Tone Poem prices + postage. My Blue Notes will do.

Last one today. . . had a few hiccups that I had to clear up today, and this disc is like a comfort food sampler to finish up the day with a calming mood. I love this music!

Jose Santos Neto Quinteto “Por Causa de Voce”

This afternoon, a Poll Winners CD reissue of Zoot Sims quartet session c/w the session on which he plays alto, tenor and baritone - very nice, and great rhythm section (John Williams, Nabil Totah, Gus Johnson).

About the Monk Prestige Album you posted : 

I don´t know different versions, as in so many cases, my copy is one of those 2 LP albums from Prestige, that you could purchase easily in the 70´s . I had one with Rollins, one with Monk, one with Davis or so.....

Just let me say, that the record you posted was a MILESTONE in my musical developement as a pianist. This version of "Sweet and Lovely" is just INCREDIBLE, listen to Monk´s cadenza , or Bemsha Swing, Trinkle Tinkle and so on, I just love to play those songs. Even one of my own compositions that wil be out on record in the near future, though it´s a waltz, has some little glimpses of Monk´s style. 

I´m sure the individual CDs are as great as my old two-fer album, maybe they even have more tracks....

I always considered it a cartoon more than art, although I can see why some would consider it art first.
