The record

A 1966 Netherlands compilation on Prestige built around Davis's trumpet, Monk's piano and Milt Jackson's vibraphone, with Percy Heath and Kenny Clarke underneath and Rudy Van Gelder credited on the recording. Two takes each of "Bags' Groove" and "The Man I Love" sit side by side, which is the reason to own an issue like this rather than a single-take one.
