J.R. Monterose J.R. Monterose on 180g 45RPM 2LP

Remastered by Kevin Gray and Steve Hoffman from the Original Rudy Van Gelder Blue Note Master Tapes

The Definitive 45RPM Blue Note Reissue Series!

Saxophonist J.R. Monterose's first session as a leader features a fine set of swinging, straight-ahead bop and a supporting cast that includes Horace Silver (piano), Ira Sullivan (trumpet), Wilbur Ware (bass) and Philly Joe Jones (drums.) An underappreciated gem in Blue Note's mid-'50s catalog.
