Thelonious Monk - Let's Call This

[@dianefarnell3080]

My dad Gary Mapp was playing the bass. Wish you were still here 💐

[@jayscribe7547]

God bless you

[@williamscott1644]

That's fantastic! Didn't your father Gary Mapp also play with Monk on a trio album featuring Art Blakey? I think it included "Bye-Ya" and "Monk's Dream."

Ppl don’t really recognize the genius of Monk. The solo at 2:45 is noteworthy

[@omololuolalekan]

Indeed.

[@coulton-davisjazz2872]

This is wicked. All those ghosted notes! Sometimes neither trumpet, saxophone nor piano is playing them and you still feel them. Sometimes, since the low ghost note is a low D for Tenor sax (near the bottom of its range), it jumps out. Wicked.

This was originally on the album "Thelonious Monk at the Blackhawk".

@dicek18 I think the album is called "Reflection" :) And it certainly is awesome..

[@noahvale939]

It isn't Coltrane on tenor on this piece. I think it's Charlie Rouse. Monk takes the best solo himself, as usual -- short, sweet, and to the point.

Yeah, sheets came up short this time...

Sonny Rollins
