Thelonious Monk(塞隆尼斯孟克)
The most important jazz musicians are the ones who are successful in creating their own original world of music with its own rules, logic, and surprises. Thelonious Monk, who was criticized by observers who failed to listen to his music on its own terms, suffered through a decade of neglect before he was suddenly acclaimed as a genius; his music had not changed one bit in the interim. In fact, one of the more remarkable aspects of Monk's music was that it was fully formed by 1947 and he saw no need to alter his playing or compositional style in the slightest during the next 25 years.
Monk 1948-1952的单声道录音,BlueNote在2007重新整理,选其7首数位重录发行。
每首曲均是杰出作品,Monk 迷,必听!!
