Music Review: Thelonious Monk - Thelonious Alone in San Francisco

[ying_ko_4]

Thelonious Monk (1917-1992) was a true musical original. Over a career spanning nearly 40 years, he left an indelible imprint not only on Jazz, but on music as well. His singular style, both in his personal fashion choices or his approach to piano and jazz are what made him so utterly unique.

I think that Thelonius Monk was one of the first if not the first jazz musicians I ever listened to. One of my friends turned me on to him in the 80's. I don't have this collection-yet.
