It had been a few years since I'd listened to this one.  I couldn't locate my copy of Grant Green's Standards and saw a J.R. Monterose album.  That led me to think of this one.  With Hod O'Brien, Teddy Kotick and Tootie Heath, this one hits hard.

Two all time great albums with my favourite Charles Mingus involved.

Money Jungle......extraordinary, it´s like if they would have re-invented Trio Jazz. And those compositions by Duke. For example, "Little Max"......that´s really COMPOSED FOR MAX ROACH, that´s how it sounds. 

 

And of course "Massey Hall". Fantastic !

Wow.  Thanks for posting this!  I spent many hours digging him around town under often less than ideal circumstances.  A friend staying at a downtown hotel (with a nice piano in the lobby) called and asked me if I had ever heard of Phineas Newborn 'cause he had just showed up unexpectedly and was playing a world of piano.

Did my federal and state taxes and I'm trying to assuage the sting of writing two checks with some great music.

Started with some lovely Dexter Gordon, the SACD of the Blue Note title "Dexter Calling" put out by Analogue Productions.

And on to Billie Holiday "All or Nothing at All" the Verve sessions on Analogue Production SACD. These Verve titles done by Analogue Productions via Sterling Sound sound FANTASTIC.
