sgcim Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 WNYC broadcast a four hour special on the Jazz Loft Project this morning, containing more in depth material on Monk, Hall Overton, Eugene Smith, and never before heard sessions with Chick Corea from 1962. This time you actually hear full conversations with Monk and Overton, as they discuss the scoring of the Monk Big Band Town Hall Concert, with Thelonious walking around in circles periodically, banging his shoe loudly on the floor. There's a lot of commentary by the few living musicians (Steve Swallow,Paul Bley and Ron Free) who played there, and also old tapes of the non-living ones. here's all four hours: https://www.wnyc.org/story/jazz-loft-anthology/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 He was alive then, so it's an understandable oversight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
