Thelonious himself by Thelonious Monk

January 21, 2009 9:45 PM

Monk comes in many flavors, almost all of them great. My favorite is solo - all alone. This album deserves pride of place any Monk collection. It’s pure, distilled genius. The songs ring with the clarity and cleanliness of meditations. There is nothing wasted here. Not a note. Not a thought. Not a motion.
