Freda Payne / Affer The Lights Go Down Low
1963 Impulse
2005 Impulse (reissue CD)

Unique album being it's a Jazz one when most of Freda Payne's albums were Soul R&B. Her big hit was "Band Of Gold".
 
Playing now... The String Quartet Tribute to Led Zeppelin... A buddy of mine gave this to me a few years back as a joke.. I actually liked it. You have not lived till you heard good times, bad times on violin and cello...

I got this beat.. Just picked it up on the free table at local record shop. I liked side 1 so far. Side 2 will soon be spinning...IMG_5687.JPG

This was my introductory purchase to Monk about 17 years ago. I had heard of him and had heard a bit but did not know him. I bought this as a piece to play while driving around Hawaii. i expected a toe tapper. Not. To consider this was first recorded in 1956 jut blows the mind. Man what a far out mind this man had.
