I bought this album in London in1965, and still have the vinyl. It still delights, and brings out Monk's amazing musical style. James P Johnson was probably looking down on Monk, and nodding approval.

Who needs words is right! I've always said words are the worst thing that ever happened to music. They let the musicians off the hook.

I'm not a huge Monk myself, but this is one I could listen to every day.

[awesomewelles90]

I've been trying to get into monk but I wasn't sure that I liked him and what all the fuss was about but this is great!
