Thelonious Monk was one of the most influential pianists and composers the jazz world has ever produced. His originality and unorthodox style have fascinated musicians and fans and continue to shape the styles of young players today. Assembled here is a vintage collection of classic Monk; most of which need no introduction to even the most novice jazz fan. The rhythm section on this recording takes a 'Monkish' approach to each song, capturing the true flavor of each of these great jazz masterpieces and creating an exciting vehicle for the soloist to ride on.
