  • If this blows you cats away you must look up my Soul playlist and catch you some Jimmy Smith. That dude simply blows up that C3 - makes me what to be reincarnated as a Hammond C3.  Check out his "The Cat" and don't forget "The Sermon". They simply blow.!!!

  • thanks god for Thelonious Monk and his handpicked musicians

  • this performance really blew my mind, amazing band, but of course it's the great Monk.

  • 2:17  THE LICK!!

  • love the bass player. But really, the whole band is stellar and understated. Such grace Mr. Monk had.

  • @zzyyxxo That's Larry Gales on Bass .

  • This video upload is A+......

  • This is from Monk in Oslo 1961. The whole band burns the place down during this performance.

  • Didn't anybody notice the credits at 5:40? 3 cameramen whose last names end in "ski", sound nordic to you?

  • @MarcBrewer Yep. And "Andrej" is about as Polish a first name as it gets!!

  • You've lost me... we all realise Oslo is in Norway, but where does it say that he's in Oslo? As mentioned below, TVP is a Polish television channel (besides the credits are in Polish) and this tour did include a stop in Poland directly after Norway.

  • Um. Oslo is in Norway, I assure you.

  • @Astrotype TVP Kultura is/was a Polish Tv channel.

  • very nice, indeeed

  • Obviously live in Neasden. Monk's waiting for a bus which - as usual - fails to arrive so he plays some more

  • Oslo is in Norway, you NITWITS!

  • It's not often one get's to see the bassist take the solo melody. Bloody brilliant.

  • Wow not too often do bassists get to show of their talent in playing a melody . Then again it is The Monk. Brilliant.

  • not live in Poland - lol

    This is OSLO, SWEDEN 1966

    Thanks Monk. Thanks for uploading.

  • Damn Rouse is sharp on this!

    Still killin, though. Thanks for the upload.

  • That bassist is so cool. Just look at the way he's chilling during the drum solo. And his own solo was really good too.

  • fattyyyy bass

  • i love ben riley's brush work, he's got such a groove, its incredible.

  • Mad respect to the man Thelonious and his cool crew.
