Thelonious Monk: Man of Sleek Style
This has been a very delightful Friday. I celebrated a little while ago by digging the robust jazz of the clever powerhouse of piano, Thelonious Monk. I listened to a great tune called 'Nutty' and I'm telling you it blew me away. Strong, exciting jazz is built into this Monk performance. Also the swinging big tenor sound of Monk's friend, Charlie Rouse was so fine. The interesting thing about the jazz music of T. Monk is the fact that it is always so fresh. Jazz...Monk Style...is a huge joy.
