I'm listening to "Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane," released on the Jazzlands label in 1961. Tracks were recorded live four years earlier at the Five Spot Club in NYC.

What. A. Photo. #CharlieMingus #Quintet at the #FiveSpot (I think). Worth noting #JohnHandyIII in the middle between Mingus and Booker Ervin. #JHIII was absolutely superb on alto. Difficult to overstate how good he was. Few have heard of him. #Jazz
