(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is an easy way to pump up Monk in your collection. 36 recordings. The packaging is really cool too - the 3 disks come arranged in a LP sized folder so it was very nostalgic to open the package and see all the liner notes.



The recordings are mixed in quality. Some extremely good, some not so good. Some the vibraphone player or sax player seems more of the featured artists, and there are some recordings with vocalists that seem out of place. However, the good is very good, and the bad is still interesting.



The major disappointment is that there is no information on the date of the recordings and the other musicians, so its difficult to place any of this in historical context. So in the end this seems like an import collection.



I'm happy with the purchase, as I'm exploring Monk know and how he ties to other musicians. But, the Carnegie Hall recording with Coltrane I picked up last year is more exciting package."

"The music gets 5 stars, but this release has no liner notes, and worse still, no listing of musicians. Unacceptable behavior on the part of the CD's producers..."
