The London Collection Volume 1 Thelonious Monk SKU: ORGM1052 Barcode: 711574702114 35.00 £35.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG / Black Lion Released Date: 22nd June 2012 Buying Format: 180g 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Thelonious Monk The London Collection Volume 1 on 180-gram LP from Black Lion/ORG History unveiled: 1971 solo mastery from Thelonious Monk chronicles the pianist’s final full-scale recording sessions as a leader Tantalizing audiophile restoration series resurrects U.K. label Black Lion. Mastered at Bernie Grundman Studios by Chris Bellman and pressed at Pallas EQ notes and curation performed by iconic engineer Steve Hoffman; LPs EQ’d and set up by Bernie Grundman Conceived, designed, and manufactured for collectors and enthusiasts: Vinyl jacket features exclusive art What if you could be a fly on the wall at Thelonious Monk’s final recording sessions as leader? You can. Offering tremendous late-period performances, The London Collection Vol. 1 is nothing but Monk, solo, unaccompanied, unadorned, and unrestrained. Alternating between established originals and familiar classics, the pianist weaves magic spells on the 88s, savoring pauses between notes, the decay of chords, and a fluid style that feels more welcome than some of his angular playing. Originally released by the U.K. label Black Lion, an imprint that specialized in resurrecting rare gems from U.S. jazz and blues legends, The London Collection Vol. 1 marks what are indisputably Monk’s final significant contributions and a can’t-miss opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts to get closer to the man and his music. Orchestrated by ORG, this historical reissue is afforded the ultimate in audiophile production standards, resulting in sonics and presentation befitting the museum-like worth of this record’s existence. Mastered from the original master tapes at Bernie Grundman Studios by Chris Bellman and pressed at Pallas, the 180-gram LP was curated by legendary engineer Steve Hoffman and eq’d by Grundman himself. A better team you cannot find; every step involved serious quality-control measures to guarantee gorgeous sound. The superb vinyl jacket features exclusive artwork. Indeed, this is what being a collector is all about. The title may not be widely known to most, but this reissue preserves vital music that will be enjoyed by generations to come. Consider it a buried treasure that, miraculously, has resurfaced in better condition than that when it was originally made.
