Like Ellington's "Piano in the Foreground", "Money Jungle" is a trio recording in this case featuring Charlie Mingus on bass and Max Roach on drums. Recorded in September of 1962, this United Artists original three track recording was transferred directly from the session master tapes to master lacquer using Bernie Grundman's all tube cutting system revealing nuance on this recording never before heard on previous pressings. Tunes include: "Money Jungle", "African Flowers", "Very Special", "Warm Valley", "Wig Wise", "Caravan" and "Solitude". Described by George Wein in the original liner notes as "Ellington! Mingus! Roach! A triumvirant, not a trio! Enough said.
