This is a previously unreleased, precious lost treasure from Monk’s most critically acclaimed line-up; Charlie Rouse on saxophone, John Ore on double bass, and Frankie Dunlop on drums. Without a widely agreed must-have Monk release, could this fill the void as the Monk everyone should own?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Recorded live in Copenhagen in 1963 at the peak of Monk’s career. A year later he was to feature on the cover of TIME magazine, one of only for 4 Jazz artists ever to do so. The performance, a mixture of Monk originals and interpretations of standards, showcases Monk at his prime: full of avant-garde flair and wit, but always with a swinging feel that explains his title as the 'High Priest of Bebop'. The original tapes, saved from a skip and blessed with the approval of the Monk estate, have been faithfully restored, mastered and cut using Gearbox's legendary all-analogue process.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gearbox Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56427494343041,"sku":"GB1541R","price":400.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/8961\/1572\/products\/GB1541_PACK_SHOT_4e0e5e60-eb45-4c56-90f4-5763e5c9c0a2.jpg?v=1535635888","url":"https:\/\/store.gearboxrecords.com\/products\/ella-fitzgerald-reel-to-reel-master-tape-copy-copy","provider":"Gearbox Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
