This Concert is the most important concert I ever attended: Amazing, transformative, chocking … I knew and loved only Dixieland before (and still do love Louis) but Monk really plays so true, no bs … Merci Thelonious ❤️
My teacher is having me transcribe Monk's solo. even though it isn't technically a complicated solo, the tight intervals make it rather difficult to decipher. I'm going to learn so much, though.
first you gotta practice getting and keeping those fingers formed in the horrifyingly proper wrong position and proceed from there to correctly hit wrong notes, parts of the right notes or notes that suggest the right notes but aren't exactly it. With practice you could begin to feel the man and his unpolished brilliance.
Been playing the upright for years-and I still marvel at the ease at which Larry Gales has mastered his instrument, to be as young as he is also; it just seems so different from what a lot of other cats were doing at that time! 1-3-24.
This is such a sweet melody.Sounds so simple,but when you peel it back,like an onion,there are lots of layers. MY MAN MONK. Thank you for this video. I have the lewie armstrong,miles davis,duke ellington,count basie ,dexter gordon AND A FEW OTHERS IN THE JAZZ ICONS SERIES. Loaned MONK and,WEATHER REPORT live at montreaux to a friend.Of course,i havent seen them since.
Un des plus beaux concerts de ce génie, à la tête d'un quartet aussi subtil que MONK, un ovni immortel, pur virtuose de l'intervalle musicale, j'ai vu cette vidéo plus de 20 fois et c'est toujours avec autant d'émotion
Interestingly enough Hendrix was a big fan of Rahsaan Roland Kirk. If you listen to the way Jimi voiced the blues you'll see why jazz composers and arrangers really dug his playing.
When Monk first did this I practised the chorus for 3 months then played it in the local pub. Everybody started shouting,"Go away! Practice for 3 Years!" Then some friendly soul called out that it was a Jonathan & Darlene Edwards thing, so then I got a round of applause and was bought a few pints. Well, it's all a matter of taste so if you like shit 'chacun a son gout'.
Perfect. How is monkman playing with that 10 pound rock on his finger. I have always loved lulus back in town AND,this is one of the if not the best LIVE versions i have ever heard.
Btw, that double bass looks very the same as the one Charles Mingus used at the exact same place there Aula University in 1964, maybe that bass is the uni's own property?
Ascolto jazz da 40 anni ho dovuto fare gavetta prima di capire il monaco poi mi è entrato come una spada nel cervello!!ma che cazzo di genio ha fatto diventare il piano una percussione!!❤
would it be too much to ask that someone who even begins to understands Monk's music, and even presumes to understand a tiny bit of the man, could offer an evaluation of may be an epochal performance?
Not everything the CIA does is murder, there is a good chance they helped arrange for this tour as part of a propaganda drive back then. See "The Mighty Wurlitzer" by Hugh Wilford. Chances are the performers never knew.
whoa! i learned mr. monk's piano in highschool for a jazz test, and used the recording from It's Monk's Time for the notes. never thought i'd get to see them perform it live! how cool! thank you for the u/l

Monk is the epitomy of displacement! The man transcends time and space!
I believe much of it was his "persona." He was good at it.
Underrated comment ...!!
A LOT of VG musicians couldn't play with him, found his music too complicated. Monk threw knuckleballs. Hit this thing! lol

One of the greatest jazz quartets in history.

Yeah, like that bit a 4:47.. and well, OK, most of it. Love to see how you did.
Tomas Jackson would love to see that transcription
Can someone transcribe Monk’s blinking at 3:50
Monk is feeling that heron thats when that raw was goooood
This swings like crazy...all the way through. Ben Riley is superb on this, playing a limited drum set. And Monk keeps you in suspense...as always.
like monk said, when ya swinging; swing some more!
Very hard to swing in Monk tempo but he demanded it, yeah

You're right. But I don't hear wrong notes.
@@tomglase5333 They are merely unexpected.
Mingus once said,"Monk plays wrong right.."
Don’t forget practicing to write comments that reveal a tin ear! Very important!
That bass solo knocks me out!
Such a lyrical solo. Simple yet complex and very elegant
Me too! Amazing.
Yep!
He does not even take a look at the neck XD
Larry is in dreamland when he takes his solo from min 7..🔥🎼😍
Snare, bass, hi hat, and cymbal. Perfect.
If I remember correctly, he didn't get all of his equipment delivered and that is the reason for the pared down drum set.
All Are Great Musicians.♫♪♫♫ Buy Wow, Larry Gales on Double Bass is SuperB, and so Cool.♫♪♫ Fantastic Solo. ♥ I Love It.!!! Thanks.
Monk pieces are never boring, no matter what he played he brings life to it in abstraction

Completely agreeing! And nobody applauds 😏
Thelonious Monk is the definition of jazz.
But not the only one.
This is such a sweet melody.Sounds so simple,but when you peel it back,like an onion,there are lots of layers.
MY MAN MONK.
Thank you for this video.

It’s a Fats Waller tune btw!

I would have loved to see a post experience Hendrix make an album together with monk, one can only imagine....
while this is an interesting idea, hendrix would definitely need to hit the shed for a few years to play monk's bag...
Interestingly enough Hendrix was a big fan of Rahsaan Roland Kirk. If you listen to the way Jimi voiced the blues you'll see why jazz composers and arrangers really dug his playing.
He was well on his way to going that route and had the ear to pull it off 👍
@@danjv he was not tight enough to play with Monk sorry
@@presleyvelvet618 this aint by ear
this is a lifetime of theory
my favorite jazz musician of all time
Mine too
The concert is from the University Aula in Oslo. Large paintings by Edvard Munch on the walls there.
Paul Hoff Baltzersen I was wondering about that
Thank you for the info. We were just wondering what and where this was.
3:13 - that 'slowly turning around looking at my watch' dance... why didn't michael jackson rip that off, eh?
When Monk first did this I practised the chorus for 3 months then played it in the local pub. Everybody started shouting,"Go away! Practice for 3 Years!" Then some friendly soul called out that it was a Jonathan & Darlene Edwards thing, so then I got a round of applause and was bought a few pints.

Yo this video is only in the right ear.
If you look up the whole concert it’s in both ears
@@helvarthered yeaah
BEST "Lulu" ever! 2:03
holy moly larry gales is too swingin
Holy cameoly
Perfect.
How is monkman playing with that 10 pound rock on his finger.
I have always loved lulus back in town AND,this is one of the if not the best LIVE versions i have ever heard.
7:55 Larry Gales cool as hell!
The best to ever do it!! RIP unc!
Monk is like Fats Waller, Duke Ellington and Frederik Chopin at cocktail hour.
Monk was the biggest harmonic genius every time.
Monk was a dear man who could play like nobody else.
A work of sublime genius.
Gale's sounds and feel are like a mixture of Sam Jones & Wilbur Ware. very inspiring!
Btw, that double bass looks very the same as the one Charles Mingus used at the exact same place there Aula University in 1964, maybe that bass is the uni's own property?
@@cotehall9434 The bass has the look of a cheap, plywood bass...not that there's anything wrong with that...
Not the most underrated of course, , but the least unknown master bassist and drummer in jazz history :)))
Impossible not to feel UP lifted when listening to Monk
Something in this makes my heart ache.
It's the Blues
@@josephtravers777 Yes. Thanks for bringing me back to this on New Year's Day.
@@eshaibraheem4218 Monk always makes me smile. Happy New Year!
@@josephtravers777 You too!💃👐
Lulu was a prostitute who became a beloved madame in New Orleans.
I thought I knew of his music. Guess not this is outstanding.
I could listen to Monk 24/7. Genius!
I once listened to Monk for 3 straight days, even while sleeping. Never got tired of it. Monk is like that.
surely in the best bass ever category amongst other things....braaahhhhhhhoowmn
One of two sax players who understood Monk's music.
The other one is Sonny Rollins.
John Coltrane struggled initially with this music.
Larry Gales one of the best to do it Rest in Peace.
Ascolto jazz da 40 anni ho dovuto fare gavetta prima di capire il monaco poi mi è entrato come una spada nel cervello!!ma che cazzo di genio ha fatto diventare il piano una percussione!!❤
Never gets old
would it be too much to ask that someone who even begins to understands Monk's music, and even presumes to understand a tiny bit of the man, could offer an evaluation of may be an epochal performance?
re discovering monk
his wrongness is just so right...!!!
loving every minute of this
Such a simple melody, but one of my fave Monk standards
3:13 damn, shop closes by the hour, oh whatever, I'll get it
...means 40 mins to gig and 10 to ride, damn
Monk and Rouse. That is money!
WTF si this? im sure they speak with the aliens
some 2020 ?
Yes
Not everything the CIA does is murder, there is a good chance they helped arrange for this tour as part of a propaganda drive back then. See "The Mighty Wurlitzer" by Hugh Wilford. Chances are the performers never knew.
for some reason I never could like Charley Rouse. my bad I guess.
rest in peace ben riley!!
lulu lulu lulu is back is back in tone
Thelonious had unique timing dont try to copy the best have failed
So clear and firmly direct with Rouse and firmly addled at the same time with Maestro Monk.The recording is great too!
I know I'm not the only one who hears the Family Guy theme song.
ummm that indeed is Charlie Rouse
Oniric, almost lisergic. I´m in trance...
I can’t help but hear the family guy theme song
Monk is definitely one of my favorites, true genius!
superlativo! unico e inimitabile! grande Thelonius!
Il padre del piano jazz
Sure he never played any wrong note, they all sound great and all belong to the chords
Dang! Watch that piano man!
1 musical genius, 3 natural talents equal all original sound.
What's up? It's all coming out the right channel.
Un maestro sensei
Larry is just killin' it!
nine years late, but the seeing him tune his string at 7:07 in the middle of his solo seems to accurately summarazie his expertise. Monster.
BonakEye is an idiot.
BonakEye is an idiot.
only right audition but wonderful
Go here : Thelonious Monk live in' 66 : Lulu's Back In Town
whoa! i learned mr. monk's piano in highschool for a jazz test, and used the recording from It's Monk's Time for the notes. never thought i'd get to see them perform it live! how cool! thank you for the u/l
I was that time -2 years old. 😍
I wasn't even born at that time.
Nobody understood tempos better than Monk.
Nobody could play around the beat like Monk. Most of his tunes were the same tempo.
come muove il piede thelonius è unico!!!!
The link is in the description. : )
what a bassist.. who is he?
One and only Larry Gales
Anyone know why Monk and Dolphy did not play togrther?
Love them both.
Grazie Fà
The bass solo is perfection
Amen! 1-3-24.
No toms, for drum sound Ben Ryley only has kick and snare, mind blowing!!!!!!
Tracing the "Family guy" theme origins brought me here
There’s sounds in inaudible frequency to some
ooh. yeah
This reminds me of Nostalgia in Times Square lol
Too good
All great artists get up from their work or step aside from their work in order to gain perspective.
余りにもモンクの足があれ程動くとは。知らなかった。
Thank you Gentlemen. + R.I.P.
THELONOIUS GÉNIE du JAZZ moderne...
Renaud
The thumbnail is wrong.
,:)
Charlie Rouse's solo is so inside.
Hi, I put a new YT vid of the same live, withthe sound in the two ears. ; )
Enjoy new !
Yes. The sound was in the right and left ears before.
I don't know what happens...
lucky theres a family guuuuuy
As always great listening to the most innovative person of jazz piano!
Does anyone know who painted the picture in the background?
Edvard Munch. The concert took place in Universitetsaulaen, in Oslo, Norway.
the left channel is dead
If Larry's bass was a tad louder this would be just perfect!
Monk and the bassist are the best.
Love so much!
