A lost treasure from the legendary Thelonious Monk – a live date recorded in Paris at the end of the 60s – late in Monk's life, and every bit as wonderful as his famous 60s studio work with his quartet! Of that group, only Charlie Rouse remains on tenor sax – but Rouse is more than enough to make things great, and the interplay between his tenor and Monk's piano is completely sublime – full of angular movements, underscored with plenty of soul – and given support from Nate Hygelund on bass and either Paris Wright or Philly Joe Jones on drums. There's a rough edge to the music that's really great – that sharper, more sinister vibe that Monk could have in a live setting – and titles include "Light Blue", "Bright Mississippi", "I Mean You", "Ruby My Dear", "I Love You Sweetheart Of All My Dreams", "Crepuscule With Nellie", and "Nutty". Special package comes with a bonus DVD of the performance!

Blameful Isles new LP "Pleroma" is a fantastic journey starting out in the mystic land of the Tanzanian capital Dodoma. In our spiritual quest for enlightenment we visited an old shaman that opened the door to the spiritual plane for us. Where we've met with spirits that told us stories about their ancestral deeds. While listening we were yet again transposed to a further astral plane in which words weren't spoken anymore. Everything came together and made sense as a whole, harmonious sounds were omnipresent we could not only hear it but see it as well. We realized that what we were experiencing was music! Upon waking up from our astral dream the sense of home and family was overwhelming. It all made sense more than ever, we had purpose yet again. This album is an ode to the realization that music is the universal language of love and compassion.
