COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Great Jazz submitted by ishhewitt on July 15, 2016, 9:42am A superb duo, wonderful jazz sounds.

Two Masters at Their Peaks submitted by Meginator on August 24, 2020, 8:59pm This album features two masters of the art at the absolute pinnacle of their talents, feeling like an extended jam session with little pressure and lots of room for innovation. Monk and Coltrane have complementary improvisational styles that mesh perfectly together, each hitting a great balance of space and virtuoso quick runs. This is jazz at its very finest, a real pleasure to listen to from start to finish.
