Les Liaisons Dangereuses 1960
Boomkat Product Review:

FOR MOVIE…” By the end of July 1959, Marcel Romano organized the recording sessions for the soundtrack of ‘Les Liaisons Dangereuses 1960’, the French movie directed by Roger Vadim. As yet, Monk’s major contribution to this movie - and only contribution to a full-length movie ever - has never seen the light of the day apart from its video form. Until Now.
"Thelonious Monk (1917-1982) was at the height of his powers when he entered Nola Penthouse Studios in New York City on July 27, 1959. The recording contains all the music utilized in the film, as well as some tracks which were not heard on screen. Sam Records / Saga celebrate the Centennial (1917-2017) of one of jazz’s greatest figures with the release of ‘Les Liaisons Dangereuses 1960’. "
