I first herd Monk in Bologna at the end of the fifties when he came to play in a memorable concert. I also approached him but with no success. When I talked to him He didn't pay much attention: he kept looking around as if he was searching for something. No problem: his music said already everything! Since then he became one of my favourite jazz players. Today at 88 I heard for the first time his famous concert in Paris in 1967. I felt the same joy, excitment and search of dissonant beauty I felt that first time. A true unique genius!
Those kinds of memories really help keep us young at heart, glad you had those experiences to rest on as you continue to age gracefully. I've had a few memorable live concert experiences and cherish each and every one of them, mainly in the folk vein.

I see Oska-T on the playlist. That was for Oscar Treadwell. A legendary radio host who at that time lived in Philly, but spent the last 30 or 40 years in Cincinnati. He was a GOD!! Would teach his Jazz Appreciation claases over the radio. Might spend an entire night on just one piece. Playing different versions, telling the personel, teaching us how to listen. Then, maybe on Friday, hed give his test to his students. Okay, ( playing a recording) , Was this from November 1957 recordibg, or the April 1962 recording? Was the Bass Player Paul Chambers or Jimmy Garrison? And we kids would stay up ,taking in every word. Legend! I used to work along side his son. Who had zero interest in music. Anyway, The Cincinnati Conservative of Music has an entire fkoor just to hold Oscars record collection, with three staffers.
Wish I could have been there in the same room when he came up with Ruby My Dear. It's such a great piece. Better than 'Round Midnight which everyone else seems to like more. They're crazy. I especially love the ascending chords he inserted between each time the theme is played, if that makes sense. As far as going back to the beginning of it I've noticed TH-cam has a problem going back to a 00:00 time stamp for some reason. I have to manually drag the red line back to the start of the video. What's up with that?
This legendary band somehow, inadvertently and unexpectedly changed the criteria for evaluating all types of contemporary musicians of their time, cleaned up the then world sound iconostasis, to force these same musicians to measure their talents and irreversibly their ability to surprise their environment 😛
How long did it take for all the band members to learn to play Evidence correctly? I bet they had to spend a lot of time listening to a recording of it instead of looking at sheet music!! It's got some tricky timing and I don't hear anyone screwing up!! Impressive!! I also would like to know how Monk came up with it!! It's completely original!! lol
Interesting. I seem to remember Monk telling people he hired to not play any bebop on his tunes, yet here he has Johnny Griffin doing exactly that!! Either I'm wrong here or he changed his mind.

Это что-то невероятное. Я и ранее не мог понять, как возможно играть так на фано, слушал CD Телониуса, но сейчас, когда мне 55, а джаз почти мертв, как рок-н-ролл ранее, кругом война, тупость и идиотизм, музыкой, настоящей внутренней музыкой, той, что свободна, не занимается почти никто, вообще не представляю хоть какого-либо повторения экспериментов Телониуса и его квартета. Как будто совершилась Троянская война культур, и более нет ни Гекторов фортепиано, ни Ахиллесов альт трубы, ни Одиссеев саксофона. Пустота и мерзость запустения...
it's a shame the sax is so strong in the mix. There are sections where to turn it up to hear the piano makes the sax painfully loud and overbearing. Worth persevering though, the quality is there.
It's reassuring to find out he was able to afford to pay eight other musicians at some point in career!! That sounds expensive!! I wonder if he wrote out everyone's parts or just showed them what to play at the piano.
It's good that there is space for every opinion. But I can't help to say that you just killed me...a bit. Luckily I have a remedy: I listen to Monk again and feel great!
Listen to a Monk tune like "Evidence'" and after so many hearings, you'll suddenly realize, "My God, this is the old standard, 'Just You, Just Me'!" and you just won't believe how incredible it all is.

The drummer is Ben Riley, not Beb Riley.
Known as Beb to his closest friends
it's a shame the sax is so strong in the mix. There are sections where to turn it up to hear the piano makes the sax painfully loud and overbearing. Worth persevering though, the quality is there.

Monk is boring and primitive.
It's good that there is space for every opinion. But I can't help to say that you just killed me...a bit. Luckily I have a remedy: I listen to Monk again and feel great!
@giorgioalberti9951 This is not an opinion, this is the truth.
Listen to a Monk tune like "Evidence'" and after so many hearings, you'll suddenly realize, "My God, this is the old standard, 'Just You, Just Me'!" and you just won't believe how incredible it all is.
You don’t understand what the word primitive is and making it a point to trash other people’s art is lowly.
More like exciting and advanced!! You and my dad would get along just fine though. He doesn't like Monk's 'technique'. Eventually you'll come around.
