Thelonious Monk Live in Paris 1967, V. 1

[ghost of miles]

We just received a promo of this, the first official release from the Monk estate. Be forewarned that (1) there are no notes outside of a brief Q and A with T.S. Monk on the inner sleeve (2) "Epistrophy," a 9:45 performance, is badly truncated and runs about a minute and a half (3) it's a CD-R.  Hopefully volume 2 comes out better.  I'm sure some board members have previous unofficial versions of this concert.. might wanna keep 'em for the time being.

I was sent the LP version of this release. 

I've owned this CD for decades:

"Epistrophy" may have been edited prior to its original broadcast.

[Peter Friedman]

I also have that same CD referred to above by Ken.

"First official release from the Monk estate"? What about:

Released by the Monk estate in 2002?
