brownie Posted June 13, 2003 Report Posted June 13, 2003 It's Friday the Thirteenth. Let's hear it for Thelonious Monk! Quote
Late Posted June 13, 2003 Report Posted June 13, 2003 Love this tune. And I'm secretly glad that Ray Copeland missed the gig! (Julius Watkins is the biscotti to Rollins' espresso. OK, bad analogy.) Quote
shawn·m Posted June 13, 2003 Report Posted June 13, 2003 Very cool number. I’m also fond of Branford Marsalis’ cover. Quote
Alexander Hawkins Posted June 13, 2003 Report Posted June 13, 2003 Was just thinking the same thing when I realised the date today! Very cool tune. Quote
Big Al Posted March 4, 2012 Report Posted March 4, 2012 Just listened to this while reading the story behind this session detailed in the Monk Prestige box. The annotator is correct, they really do sound like they're running outta gas about halfway through. Still a fascinating performance, nonetheless. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 4, 2012 Report Posted March 4, 2012 I first heard this on the "Big Band and Quartet" lp. Loved it immediately! Quote
GA Russell Posted March 4, 2012 Report Posted March 4, 2012 My introduction to it was the Town Hall orchestra recording. Still enjoy it! Quote
