THELONIOUS MONK Thelonious Monk Plays (Scarce 1956 UK 4-track 10" album on Esquire, pressed on heavyweight vinyl with 'RVG' etched in the run-out & unique 10" front laminated flipback picture sleeve, recorded 22.9.54 with Percy Heath on bass & either Abdullah Buhaina or Art Blakey drums. The sleeve shows just a little light ring wear & discolouring at the edges with a small name & date penned in the corner on the reverse. The condition is otherwise very good with all text clearly legible & the flipbacks secure. The vinyl plays through superbly & to an excellent standard, despite a couple of light scratches at the beginning of the first side, which have little to no affect on play)
