It really is a great listen. Instrument detail and clarity is top notch.The Yusef Lateef sounds amazing. This is definitely a top tier Classics release.

I'm with you. I have a year-long sub that ends in September so I have some time left at the $33 price point. But with add-ons being $36 it changes things substantially.Well Well...with the recent price increase looks like my Classic's completionist phase is over! Just means more money for Tone Poet
Me too…kinda blew me away.Enjoying this much more than I thought I would, it’s much better than the other record I have by him.

It’s a really cool album. I have an early pressing and I may even have an old Prestige twofer but the new one sounds fantastic. I have a LITTLE bit of what might be GZ crackle but need to give it a clean in the Humminguru.Enjoying this much more than I thought I would, it’s much better than the other record I have by him.

Def noticed a bit in between tracks but tbh on this album it kinda adds character. Really enjoyed my first listen through.Just finished spinning my Dave Van Ronk! Great great album, glad I picked it up! Def some GZ background crackle though @MikeH
That was exactly my thought hahaha, I didn’t mind at all.Def noticed a bit in between tracks but tbh on this album it kinda adds character. Really enjoyed my first listen through.
I had some during tracks. And I have the van gelder stamped copy if I want old timey crackle but I’ll give it a proper clean and listen again before contacting CSDef noticed a bit in between tracks but tbh on this album it kinda adds character. Really enjoyed my first listen through.
Nope. My first was defective, had a weird mark on track 1 that caused several skips. Replacement was better but not completely flat. Fortunately plays fine so it is what it is at this point.2nd copy of dreams with a pretty severe dish warp. Anyone gotten a flat copy of the GZ press?
Might give it one more shot and see my luck.Nope. My first was defective, had a weird mark on track 1 that caused several skips. Replacement was better but not completely flat. Fortunately plays fine so it is what it is at this point.
At least the most recent ROTMs were flat.
So...Blue Monk?The latest overpriced VMP10 dropped and it's Thelonious Monk's Paris 1969. The sales page for it teases a Monk Classics release coming this year, at least.
I might have missed it, but does anyone know where I can listen to the Black Nasty album? It seems like something I'd like, but it's not up on Tidal.
Spotify has Blue Monk and Light Blue, but I can't find anything that suggest that Light Blue was an actual album, nor Blue Monk. So probably "Monk's Blues"?So...Blue Monk?
The album is Paris 1969! I thought it was Monks Blues as well though for some reasonSpotify has Blue Monk and Light Blue, but I can't find anything that suggest that Light Blue was an actual album, nor Blue Monk. So probably "Monk's Blues"?
Anyway, not going to entice me, I feel like the market has gotten slammed with Monk reissues lately.
No, the listing for Paris 1969 teases an upcoming Monk classic's release based on the colour.The album is Paris 1969! I thought it was Monks Blues as well though for some reason
