Got lucky again found another RVG Blue Note Edition. This one is Thelonious Monk "Genius of Modern Music Volume 2." Originally recorded at WOR Studios on July 23 1951 and May 30 1952. Remastered by RVG 2002. All transfers from original lacquer discs to digital were made at 24 bit resolution. These are Mono recordings.
Do not let this put you off from getting this disc because it is Mono. This captures Thelonious Monk at the peak of his creativity and includes the rare and hard to find composition of "Four In One".
This is just a masterful job by RVG to put this to disc without loss of the original. Sound is marvelous and this is a very worthy addition to any serious Jazz library.
Very thankful that RVG and Blue Note are remastering and reissuing these timeless classics.
