  What are your views on Thelonious Monk?

 
The most singular jazz artist. You can hear just a few notes and know its him immediately.

Try 'My Funny Valentine' and  'Four & More' by Miles, Hancock, George Coleman and Tony Williams..it's a live recording in NY, 1964 I believe, it's two albums of the same gig, the latter less mellow then the first.. Best live Jazz ever IMO..good luck :wink_face:   (great sq as well)

A huge +1 on "Four & More", great uptempo album, great recommendation.

You won't be sorry.  I've actually done it twice.  I always find something new to consider.  Just to add to the list, my newest addition:
 


I really like it a lot, although there seems to be a glitch in the first file from HDTracks.

Go to YouTube, search any name mentioned in this thread, and just follow where it leads you. It amazes me what you can find there. It could be days before you come up for air.

Some great trombone in here for you trombone fans. Got to make it through the prolonged introduction for the good stuff.

Brilliant thanks. I have the highlights CD from the same concerts which is great but I haven't heard this yet. My favorite track from the CD I have is You don't know what love is/Meuzzin the second half of which has the same droneing, middle eastern sound as this.

I always find myself returning to this album come summertime.

The OJC remaster is the one to get! A fantastic recording with an interesting story.

Thanks, TJ.  I like it a lot.  Wasn't previously familiar with Michael Wollny.  Reminds me of The Bad Plus.  I'll buy this one.
