  • I put Charlie Rouse up there next to Stan Getz and Sonny Rollins personally

  • Listening to the original version firmly implants in my mind the whole main idea of the song.

  • I grew up listening to this, and it still has the power to make me laugh with pleasure. Monk is like a big kid, who's also a genius, having incredible fun at the piano.

  • I transcribed Monks entire solo on this if anyone wants it :)

  • @JaYSpRE2007 i want it!!! here is my email bigchack@yahoo.com Thank you so much!!!

  • Go Charlie!! I love jazz

  • HA HA Monk is really tripping up the intro!! Dang you're right, Mr. Rouse really had to have his shit down. And he does!! LOVE Charlie Rouse!

  • Charlie was the man, look at how he's looking @ 2:36, cool as hell!

    I love Charlie Rouse.

  • No other saxophonist could get into Monk's mind and hold his own like Rouse did. Fantastic.

  • ayfkm?

  • He's so thin here! (see him straightening his ring when it slips). I wonder why? Guy loved to eat.

  • @caroljm36 I've always thought that this was a function of his phrasing- either he kept the loose fitting ring to remind him to let his playing breathe, or he had great phrasing partially due to the ring always falling off. I guess we'll never have a clue what was going on in his genius mind..

  • @caroljm36 judging by this music, he was afraid of the evil clowns living in his fridge

  • too hip.

  • black music is the best love thelonious monks music

  • Even the elbow smash in the end is so musical. I love the different ways he comps the head melody of this song.

  • dirpyin this right now!

  • ¡¡¡AWESOME MUSIC¡¡¡ HQ Music.

  • Monk&Rouse--Conversation at it's best!!

  • Monk's solo was out of this world amazing. Must learn! must learn!

  • It`s really great, I agree! All guys in fantastic performances! Great moment!

  • this may be the best live monk foootage I have ever seen...THANK YOU for posting this joyous gem for us to enjoy. Fantastic!!!
