[Dixielandjazz] Thelonious Monk, 'Round Midnight and the Atomic Age

[Marek Boym]

A wonderful band!
I have one old LP, and love it (except for the recorder).
I saw the band in Nice in mid-70's, and loved it!  And found that, despite
rather tight arrangements, they were improvising!  I taped most of the
shows, but decided not to tape "I Hope GAbriel Likes My Music" again, since
it wassuch a standard.  I'm sorry to this day - the second version (the
same day) was very different from what I had recorded some two hours
earlier!

The link seems to give a new version of the band which, I understand, has
been reactivated,
Cheers
