Jason Moran on Thelonious Monk

[TehWinnerz]

found the horns a bit distracting during this. My favourite trio alongside Jarrett's though. What a unique voice.

[DarthClam]

Okay come on, this was in a recording studio. Where can I find the good quality version? This already sounds so freaking epic

[maisqpoesia9999lcg]

Amazing!!!!

[Artemissification]

enlighting enchanting rendition of the master. The best Nellie i ever heard not by Monk himself. As if Moran speaks to Monk

[soyfity]

Monk would be sooooooo proud to hear this rendition of his tune. Jason really does this Legend some justice. All of these artists are awesome.

[jazzkeys44]

Such a great rendition of this tune without being a total Monk copy. I love the groove that happens midsong.

[sgreb]

This rendition takes so much from Monk and adds a plethora of multi-layered components, that it creates an extremely rich and respectful homage, while simultaneously existing as a very poignant and personal statement.

Jazz at it's highest calibre!!

Just stumbled onto Jason Moran, and now I need to learn more. Wow, what a talent. Downloading "Ten" now, and will get into that this as soon as possible.

[beeblebronx]

Saw him this weekend at the ÜberJazz in Hamburg. Was a great live concert. He's a helluva pianist. His bass player is a genius, and his drummer is a monster. Thank you for the evening.

[rtifishul]

Oh, this is remarkable. It's very interesting to hear Monk's music as it gets interpreted throughout the years.

[maddymud]

is it so wrong for me to want him to play my dinner party?

[rtifishul]

@maddymud yes.
