ghost of miles Posted August 31, 2020 Report Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) Got my Amazon UK shipping notice as well. It’ll take several weeks to get here... excited to hear it (and to read the booklet with Robin D.G. Kelley’s notes). Edited August 31, 2020 by ghost of miles Quote
sidewinder Posted August 31, 2020 Report Posted August 31, 2020 The booklet is well worth the wait. Well written. Quote

I don't think I've ever been so disappointed to not be able to get an album before! I hope whatever resolution appears to have been reached for the UK is also resolved in the US soon! As noted earlier in this thread, this recording is technically in the public domain in the UK, which may be the only reason it's available there right now. I wouldn't wait for the US copyright to run out in 2057. I doubt I'll live to see that calendar date and even if I am still around, I doubt that this Monk release will matter a whole lot to me.

sidewinder Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 This album is like a bottle-stopped geyser trying to get out there ! Quote
Clunky Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 I got my copy today via amazon uk in less than 24hrs! Quote
jazzbo Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 Great news! I'm a few weeks out is my guess. Maybe less if the USPS is operating as usual. Quote
mikeweil Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 Pulled mine from the mailbox after work and immediately tossed it into the player. I never heard that edition of Monk's quartet play livelier. Great to have this on CD. I sincerely hope all of you who want it will get a copy. A question to those who already have it: To my ears the bass is a bit too loud in the mix, and the piano too low. Is it just me? Quote
mjazzg Posted September 1, 2020 Report Posted September 1, 2020 Glad to hear another's being played. I certainly noticed the bass being high in the mix. Quote
OliverM Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Thanks for the heads up on this release, playing it now and excellent! Quote
gmonahan Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Finally got a shipping notice. Now I wait...... gregmo Quote
djcavanagh Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 Drift (a record store in the UK) said that the release is back on in the email they sent out today. Quote
JSngry Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 There's a story here that is not yet being told...surely? Quote
Д.Д. Posted September 2, 2020 Report Posted September 2, 2020 "Currently unavailable" at amazon UK - but not before it had reached the top-100 in CD bestsellers list. Quote

Seems to be the case? Amazon US now has it listed for a Sept. 18 release date: Thelonious Monk Palo Alto Quote

Amazon US now has it listed for a Sept. 18 release date: Thelonious Monk Palo Alto Good news. Wondering about the status of my pre-order with Amazon. It still shows in my orders list and with the September 18 release date. Since it cancelled/was reinstated will they send an email before the 18th about the delivery status? I don't want two copies but I want to make sure I get this if its truly set for release. Quote

jlhoots Posted September 3, 2020 Report Posted September 3, 2020 Received an e-mail from Amazon US that my order is in place. Quote

Eric Posted September 3, 2020 Report Posted September 3, 2020 Wonder whether this will still come out on vinyl? I like the looks of the cover and would like to own it 12x12 style Quote

Brad Posted September 3, 2020 Report Posted September 3, 2020 I wonder if we will ever find out the true story. Quote
JSngry Posted September 3, 2020 Report Posted September 3, 2020 Ok, so who taught whom a lesson, and about what? Quote
