I don’t know if there’s an answer to this question. I was at the NYC library yesterday in Lincoln Center and saw 6 books on Monk. It got me wondering how many books were written on Thelonious Monk and what jazz artist been written about the most.
Any educated guesses?
Like the new one George Coleman, this too was just released. Both this and the one with Coleman, are downloads only. The age of hard copies are truly dying out.
I wish everyone here a safe and healthy 2020.
