This year marks the 65th anniversary of the release of his rare Atlantic recordings with the Jazz Messengers, the famous hard bop combo led by Art Blakey, and with Thelonious Monk, the genius and the high priest of bebop. On May 14-15, 1957, Thelonious Monk recorded an album for Atlantic Records with Art Plakey & The Jazz Messengers.This is the only recording of piano giant Thelonious Monk with the Jazz Messengers led by Art Blakey, and the only recording Monk made for Atlantic. This led to a session at New York's Capitol Studios in 1957, produced by Nesch Artigan. The resulting album is a reflection of the bond between the two musicians, and Monk's original compositions such as "In Walked Bud," "I Mean You," and "Blue Monk" show the chemistry between his unique melodies and Blakey's unwavering swing sense. The deluxe edition of the album will be released in this time. This deluxe edition includes the newly remastered original album on LP1 and previously unreleased material from the sessions on LP2. The photo-filled booklet also includes liner notes by music historian, journalist, and producer Ashley Khan.Monk, known as the genius and high priest of bebop, is now available in a deluxe edition that delves deeper into this unique masterpiece of the Jazz Messengers' complete works, in which he guest-starred with a prestigious hard bop combo.
