I think Sun Ra was from Birmingham - much weirder than Mars!

Well, I see where you're coming from better from your last comment, but in fact Monk worked his arrangements out as carefully as Oscar Peterson or Bud Powell. There's a long recording someone has now released of him going through the process, making an arrangement of a standard, trying different things, putting it together. One way to realize how intentional it all is is to reflect that, no matter what key he plays in, he gets the same effects - that won't happen unless you''re being precise.

No i never said he didn't know what he was doing, he knows what he's doing. but he really does improvise completely always does he not? and I'm saying even his crude on the spot playing is better than what most people take time to develope. that's all i'm saying. and crude's not bad just different; monk's from mars sun ra's from... well. he came from somewhere.

Well, funk45750, it's nice to see that you have figured out that Mr. Monk doesn't know what he's doing. He sure had fooled a lot of people, like all the greatest jazz musicians of the last 50 years. But of course, what do they know?
