"totally underrated: MEMORIES OF THELONIOUS SPHERE MONK, a live disc from the early 70s. The sound is pristine, and the band is MJ, Monty Alexander, Ray Brown, and Mickey Roker"
totally agree with poster from 12 years ago, and Bags and Trane album is ace as well.

I was reminded of this record recently (not streaming but on youtube) and it's even better than I remember:

Also sounds incredible for a 1982 live recording (discogs says it was recorded in '82, anyways).
