Moving on with my Christmas uploads, the next selection I'm uploading, is Thelonious Monk's "Brilliant Corners", one of my favorite albums from him (next to Straight, No Chaser). Unfortunately, I have to skip "Ba-lue Bolivar Ba-Lues-Are", because of it's length, but thankfully, the rest of the album will fit. Enjoy and have a merry Christmas!

Thelonious Monk - Live in '66 This Playlist, which contains Thelonious Monk's two studio television performances taped in Oslo and Copenhagen in 1966, proves that seeing Monk is as important as hearing him. He's backed by his legendary quartet tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouse, bassist Larry Gales, and drummer Ben Riley, who was forced to play with a spare borrowed drumkit. Save for the two renditions of the standard "Lulu's Back in Town" and another popular song, "Don't Blame Me," the rest of the six selections are pure Monk, including the spellbinding "Blue Monk," the algorithmic "Epistrophy," and of course, his eternal ballad "'Round Midnight," delivered here at a slightly faster tempo. Thelonious's flat-fingered touch,trancelike dancing (which Riley playfully mimics), fancy footwork at the keyboard, and wild choice of hats steal the show.

"Orrin Keepnews, Producer." Chapter 13 features the 1956 Riverside recording by Thelonious Monk, "Brilliant Corners," with Sonny Rollins, Max Roach, Clark Terry and Oscar Pettiford. One of themost respected of all jazz producers, Orrin Keepnews's long and productive career has included working with such artists as Sonny Rollins, Bill Evans, Wes Montgomery, Cannonball Adderley and Thelonious Monk, as well as founding influential jazz labels Riverside and Milestone. Brilliant Corners is a 1957 album byThelonious Monk. It was his third album for the Riverside label and the first, for this label, to include his own compositions. The complex title track required over a dozen takes in the studio, and is considered one of his most difficult compositions. In 2003, it was one of fifty recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry. Because of its historical significance the album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999.[2] The track Pannonica is named for Pannonica de Koenigswarter, a close friend of Monk's.

www.midatlanticjazzfestival.org presents a performance from the 2011 Festival, featuring with Bobby Broom Trio with Bobby on guitar, Dennis Carroll on bass and Kobie Watkins on drums, performing "Ask Me Now," from the recording "Bobby Broom Plays for Monk." For more info www.bobbybroom.com Bobby Broom is becoming increasingly noted for his personal approach to the jazz legacy that influenced him, which includes the groundwork laid by his childhood jazz-guitar heroes, Wes Montgomery, early George Benson and Pat Martino and others such as Kenny Burrell and Grant Green. Broom's career has included work with Max Roach, Stanley Turrentine, Kenny Garrett, Miles Davis, Dr. Lonnie Smith, Charles Earland, Dr. John, Kenny Burrell, Eric Alexander and Ramsey Lewis, among others. In the mid 1980s Broom relocated to Chicago where he went on to tour and record with many of the aforementioned musicians. In Chicago, he also formed the Bobby Broom Trio in 1990 and the Deep Blue Organ Trio in 1999. Among Bobby Broom's recordings as a leader is his trio's 2001 release, Stand!, a recording of unlikely interpretations of 60s and 70s pop and soul classics which received praise for staying true to the creative demands of authentic modern jazz. Jambands online magazine writes "Stand!"'s theme works well for Broom — it adds accessibility to the set without getting in the way of documenting a skilled trio in its natural element. Further examples of Broom's foray into the developing American Song <b>...</b>

With the Riverside sessions of July 1957, Monk and Trane delivered one of the seminal recordings in all of jazz. The sessions took place at Reeves Sound Studios in New York City. Riverside recently released a two-disc set of The Complete Riverside Recordings of Monk and Trane, from April to July 1957. It is essential listening. The lineup on "Ruby, My Dear" was Thelonious Monk (piano), John Coltrane (tenor saxophone), Wilbur Ware (bass) and Shadow Wilson (drums). One of the most memorable collaborations in all of jazz history. Note: If anyone objects to this video presentation due to copyright concerns, please make contact and it will be removed.

at about 3:30, song ends, and Monk is not happy with producer's response to his question. Very cool look at the inner workings of a jazz legend. Thelonious Monk: Straight No Chaser. Filmmaker Bruce Ricker couldn't believe his luck. Michael and Christian Blackwood's extensive 1968 footage of the groundbreaking modern jazz pianist and composer Thelonious Monk, including the only footage of the very private Monk off stage, was in excellent condition. The reels were, in Ricker's words, "just sitting there like the Dead Sea Scrolls of jazz." Ricker, as co-producer, joins director and fellow producer Charlotte Zwerin (Gimme Shelter), executive producer Clint Eastwood and others to bring these scrolls to astonishing life. Their Thelonious Monk: Straight No Chaser combines the Blackwood's rare footage of Monk in studio on tour and behind the scenes with new interviews, archival photos and more to create a landmark aural and visual treat. Year: 1988 Director: Charlotte Zwerin

This Monk tune is so melodically and harmonically sophisticated and interesting. OK, I should have used a metronome, but I uploaded this video anyway. Part of the time I play "outside" or against the chord structure. I try not to go so far out that I get lonely, which I tend to do when I play for myself. Besides Monk, Bill Evans playing this is my favorite.

Recorded over two evenings in Los Angeles in 1964 and arranged in order, this recording presents the great Thelonious Monk at the peak of his considerable talents--and with his most enduring sidemen, including saxophonist Charlie Rouse and drummer Ben Riley. This version also restores 11 (!) cuts to their entirety (previous versions edited or offered shortened bass and drum solos). Aside from the now-complete versions of the set's songs, this It Club also offers three previously unreleased songs ("Teo," "Bright Mississippi," and "Just You, Just Me") and 20-bit digital remastering. The result is perhaps as close as we can come to a great-sounding complete show by one of the most fertile minds in the history of jazz. While not one of Monk's wilder live sessions, this set nonetheless effortlessly communicates the pianist's offbeat genius. From the first note, the sound (which thanks to the remaster, begs for high volume) is classic Monk: inquisitive right-hand chord exploration, thundering left-hand exclamations, and intoxicating runs up and down the keyboard fly from his fingers while the band gives him enough room so that every thought, strategy, and wild hare is allowed to range free. Highlights include an exquisitely gorgeous "I'm getting Sentimental over You", a spicy "Rhythm-A-Ning," and an uptempo "Bright Mississippi." With excellent liner notes by Bob Blumenthal and some new photos, this package rates as a must-buy for all Monkophiles. --S. Duda
