I will need to learn how to play the piano, and also how to play chess, before I die. I think I'm missing out.

@Miloshevits KING CRIMSON, man

Man I love how that one alto is this white bro with his panties in a knot, and Monk is just chilling hard in the corner taking it all it.

@Miloshevits Don't you dare put Coldplay on the same level as Radiohead, don't you even dare. It's like comparing a used condom with an antique watch

@BPColin Coldplay have compromised their musical taste for the sake of commercialism, so they are NOT musicians. They are entertainers

@Rigerdaby So because they lack musical wit they're bad? You're pretty stuck up yourself there Mr. Conservatorium, I used to be stuck in a "jazz bubble" like you. People. like Monk and Coltrane got inspiration from all music from all parts of the world, that's why they were so original. And let's face it, you're not going to get very far in this world with the music industry the way it is just by being a good jazz pianist. Even if you become the next Taylor Eigsti

@Rigerdaby Coldplay might seem a little gay to those insecure with their sexuality, but they are a talented group of modern musicians.

@Rigerdaby No need to pick on Coldplay. As a jazz musician studying at a college for music i can tell you that it is more important to recognize good music and appreciate good music of all types. Coldplay and Radiohead are some of the most harmonically inventive modern progressive bands that i've heard. My point is that while we are all here listening and appreciating Monk's genius, we should still take all forms of music into consideration before putting them down.
