Verve Mondays closes April with the first-ever mono vinyl pressing of John Coltrane's A Love Supreme -- mastered from the original analog tapes for the Coltrane 100 centennial. Tonight at Kissa Kissa.
May's Verve Mondays features Astrud Gilberto, Marcos Valle, Yusef Lateef, and Stan Getz -- plus a special Tuesday Coltrane 100 event with the newly reissued Africa/Brass.
On Monday, April 13, Kissa Kissa hosts a pre-release early listening session for Verve's newly-unearthed 3LP set of the Oscar Peterson Trio live at Baker's Keyboard Lounge in Detroit, 1960 -- five complete sets with Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen, unreleased for 65 years, played in full on vinyl.
Beginning April 6th, Kissa Kissa partners with Verve Records for a 39-week vinyl listening event series celebrating the label's 70th anniversary. Every Monday night -- a new reissue, an exclusive cocktail, and a full evening of curated jazz on vinyl at Brooklyn's only traditional jazz kissa.
