The album was digitally remastered and re-released on CD in 1997 with one additional take and without the fake applause added to the original LP.
History
The album features four Monk compositions, only one of which had previously been recorded by Powell, and the album fittingly begins with this: "Off Minor", a song that Powell included in his first session as leader (see Bud Powell Trio), recorded in January 1947 – its first ever recording, since Monk himself only recorded it in October the same year (see Genius of Modern Music).
