    That was my reaction seeing these classic recordings on one CD. A twenty-two page insert has recording dates, personnel, and much more! If you've enjoyed a night at the Vanguard, you will feel the energy that is in that room when you listen to "MONDAY NIGHT!" The wonderful studio session "CENTRAL PARK NORTH," was recorded nine months later, and both are remastered very well.
