Clark Terry Quartet with Thelonious Monk - In Orbit

The Original Jazz Classics series continues to uphold its legacy with the reissue of Clark Terry's seminal album, In Orbit. Originally recorded in New York in 1958 and featuring the legendary Thelonious Monk in his sole Riverside outing as a sideman, this album is a cornerstone of Terry's discography. Accompanied by Sam Jones on bass and Philly Joe Jones on drums, In Orbit features Terry's inept talents as a trumpeter and leader. This reissue, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI, benefits from AAA lacquers meticulously cut from the original master tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio. The packaging also features a high-quality Tip-On Jacket, reflecting the series' commitment to preserving the integrity of the original release, from cover art to liner notes. Since its inception in 1982, the Original Jazz Classics (OJC) series has been the benchmark for collectible jazz reissues. In Orbit is a prime album to reissue, offering a pristine listening experience that honors the timeless artistry of Clark Terry and his collaborators.
