The record

A split-bill festival date pairing two titans who rarely shared vinyl space, capturing Davis's sextet at full flame just after Kind of Blue's personnel had gelled. Monk's side, cut with his own quartet, offers a rare Newport glimpse of his singular rhythmic logic in front of an audience.
