This is a compilation of two 10" LP's recorded by the Thelonious Monk Quintet in 1953/54. This album was credited to Monk only on it's release later in 1954.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
