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!

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.

Actually on this level cartoon is art, I believe ....
