Analogue Productions (referred to as AP from this point on for brevity), an audiophile company based in Salinas, KS, recently released an extraordinary new Monk box set entitled The Riverside Tenor Sessions. The box contains seven albums--Brilliant Corners, Monk's Music, Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane, Thelonious in Action, Misterioso, 5 by Monk by 5, and At the Blackhawk--all on gold CDs (or 180-gram LPs). These albums provide a sampling of the era's biggest tenor sax players--Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane, Coleman Hawkins, Johnny Griffin, Charlie Rouse and Harold Land. I'll go over the individual albums, and then tell you about the packaging.
The Riverside Tenor Sessions is a beautifully packaged box set; limited to 2,500 copies each on CD and vinyl. Although it is far from inexpensive, this collection is sure to please the serious Monk fan. The sound quality throughout the box is superior (or in the case of Monk's Music, vastly superior) to the other discs out there. These seven albums are among the best in jazz, and they have never sounded better.
