Our Take

In the magical world of jazz, a trio of legends – Duke Ellington, Charles Mingus, and Max Roach – come together in the historic collaboration that is "Money Jungle." And boy, does this limited transparent purple vinyl release bring that magic to life in style.

From the very first note, you can feel the raw energy and creative spark that these three musical geniuses bring to the table. The playful interplay between Ellington's piano, Mingus' bass, and Roach's drums is nothing short of mesmerising, drawing you in like a moth to a flame.

"Mood Indigo" showcases Ellington's classic elegance, "Fleurette Africaine" takes you on a wild, exotic journey, and "Caravan" will have you dancing like nobody's watching (please, dance like everybody's watching for maximum embarrassment).

The transparent purple vinyl adds a touch of retro cool to an already iconic album, making it a must-have for any jazz enthusiast or vinyl collector. So grab yourself a glass of your favourite tipple, dim the lights, and let "Money Jungle" transport you to a world where jazz reigns supreme.

In a sea of generic music releases, "Money Jungle" stands tall as a timeless masterpiece that will have you tapping your toes, snapping your fingers, and grooving like never before. Trust me, you won't regret diving into this jazz treasure trove.
