@rippist91: That atonal dissonance stuff from classical composers was CRAP....This is a whole 'nother thing right here with 'Monk...

This is music good for the cosmos and all in or out of them.

Heey maaan... whutch'a smoke'nnn??

@rippist91 I am sure but dissonance was nothing new. Monk was doing his thing 40 years after composers like Schoenberg were composing a-tonal or 12 tone music. But to the common jazz listener back then, you are probably right.

I like to think that jazz and blues - 2 predominantly black music genres - helped them gain rights.

he sure was different...

Way Way out, man! Cubist bebop- genius if ever there was!

that wasnt really an intro, the horns come in on the outro chorus..

He began the freejazz with this tune.

To me this dude right here was one of the baddessss musician who ever hit the planet. His stuff is unreal. NEVER duplicated..
This is music of another dimension, or at least another time era.

@Mean6String its not just this song that no two versions are different, but rather all versions of ANY jazz song are different, whether it be a different soloist, a different band, or just a different arrangement, jazz is always changing--that's what makes it just plain awesome
