Hello?

[@michaeltoner3366]

You know, the more I listen to many of Monk's recordings, the more I appreciate the symbiosis between Monk and tenor sax Charlie Rouse, who to me is one of the most underrated musicians of the bebop era and beyond. And Butch Warren on bass with Ben Riley here, they too deserve great credit. You don't get people to play with Monk who don't have their stuff together. I realize that here, they're in Paris doing a festival, and a lot of old favorites, but that soul connection between Monk & Rouse still stands out to me. They go back, brothers & sisters! And bless them and their enormous talents-- They bring us forward!

[@rjjstephan]

[@michaeldavidrubin8823]

One night at the Five Spot, Thelonious seemed to be in one of his moods, would play a few bars, walk off the stage, let the others carry the rest of the song; come back for next piece, same thing - right through each set. And, do not think any of us were disappointed - because his guys handled everything so well, right up to standard. We all loved Monk not just for the notes he played, but for himself, something about his stance in life; & his players likewise. All good, original & unified.

[@georgemoore2444]

as a child growing up in S.W.oklahoma, while all of my parents friends record selection included Country music, popular music etc, my father's collection was jazz and western swing. I grew up listening to Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillispie, Charles Mingus, Theo Monk, John Coltrane Sonny Rollins, Bob Willis etc. At the time I just took it that as my dad's music. later I came to appreciate the music my father had turned me onto.

A fella on here commented on how Monk can make you dance. All that talk about technique and how he had bad technique, etc. This is a choice live recording of his best band. His Columbia recordings, except for Monk (8 or so in all) are all complete masterpieces. Monk is worth owning, but don't start on that one. They don't get the credit they deserve. Monk took time to seep into my bones. His music first struck me as simple, then a tune here and there on the album I first bought, CrissCross, started registering to me. Got catchy. Then over several listens, the whole album lit me up. Every moment of the album became a whole deep enjoyment. Each album did the same thing the same way. Mingus said he had the best meter of anyone. What he is doing then, is swinging. He swings using timing, and he swings by adding the perfect tonal touches at the right time. He also brought a childlike enthusiasm into his music that was and still is not matched by anyone else; the joy is inescapable. Third, he often began his studio tunes with these beautiful stride pieces that brought the band in at a time that couldn't happen more appropriately. He built tension on the intro that was so tight, and then the band would come in and the tune is elevated at that moment to a chemical reaction. He had his perfect band during those years, and he had worked out every detail of his songs, many of which were already in is repertoire for many years. Lastly, he brought you to city as he knew it. You can hear the city, streetcars, on several great tunes. That also is some of the enthusiasm I'm talking about. Altogether, nobody swung as hard as Monk. He will always be the top. Nobody can make me dance like Monk. Check out those Columbia recordings.

[@bobriedinger5287]

I was blessed to have been born in the 60'2 to a family of of creative people. As a Black American, my history in America far exceeds the middle passage across the Atlantic. It is rare today to get truth in fact about the Blacks in America and their inhabitation in America, predating the slave trades from Africa. Seems as though a whole lot of information has been omitted. The indigenous people as they are called excluded the Blacks in early America who were omitted in that definition. (that was a tiny side bar that my spirit had me mention)... to be continued for another time as the dots are connected and the blanks are filled in. This music is priceless and as a little girl, I loved to hear my dad playing his saxophone in in the house in Queens, NY. It was a backdrop so to speak of my life. Music , science, and more. You could say that I was fortunate to have witnessed self determination and excellence on a variety of levels during the era where Black America was not blatantly disregarded. There was room to excel and expect fruitful outcomes from Black people in America. Unlike today where we are seeing the results of ill meaning strategies of social and political planning that has taken many decades to rear its ugly and gradual narrative.

Americas most original composer/ musician, certainly jazz wise, and that's playing it safe of the last 75 years. There is only, and will ever be one=ly one Monk.Strangely enough I like hearing other people play Round Midnight better than the man himself. The rest of the canon - One of kind.

I've been listening mostly to hard bop for years and recently revisiting Monk (who I wasn't keen on earlier). I'm glad I gave his music a second chance, as his writing is very original and has a much different feel than many of his contemporaries. I feel like such artists deserve a second or third chance if you don't immediately enjoy their music. The payoff is wonderful - this album swings and also has introspective moments that I also enjoy. Superb music - American Classical.
