Bemsha Swing - Miles Davis-Monk

[@paulgottlieb]

This is one of Monk's most unforgettable tunes. a true classic

[@megisynynef2224]

This is great music from the problematic session of Xmas Eve 1954. (Note -Miles seems quite happy to solo over Monks super-hip comping on this one piece.which genuinely enhances Miles' solo). Again note how the brilliance of Monk's fiercely uncompromising comping helps bring out the best of Milt Jackson. But when the Maestro comes to solo on his own wonderful tune, he caps them all. Just one example - listen to the casual brilliance with which Monk tosses out that rolling, descending phrase between 6.10 and 6.13. - a brief flash of the pure unsurpassed genius of the great Thelonious Monk.
