Thelonious Monk —
Monk's Blues ... LP Columbia, 1968. Very Good+ ... Just Sold Out!
Thelonious Monk meets the mighty Oliver Nelson – the hip bigger band arranger who was helping so many other artists find their groove back in the 60s! The result is less Nelson-led than some of Oliver's other albums of the time – and instead, the arranger is nicely respectful of Monk's ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(70s pressing – CS 9806. Cover has light staining & waviness on the lower corner, but the rest is nice.)
Columbia, 1964. Very Good+ ... $24.99
Beautiful Columbia work from Thelonious Monk – a record that has as much warmth and charm as it does visionary modernist moments! A number of the tunes are standards, not Monk compositions – and they're done here with a sense of depth and joy of exploration that's really wonderful ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Classic 60s work from Thelonious Monk – featuring his incredible quartet with Charlie Rouse on tenor, certainly Monk's best-ever musical soulmate!

(360 Sound stereo pressing with white text – 1C/1C. Cover has some ringwear, yellowing from age, a small name written in red marker in back, and ink stamp inside the opening.)
Riverside, 1957. Very Good ... $33.99 39.99
A classic outing of solo piano by Thelonious Monk – a format that wasn't used often, but which always made for some really compelling work! Monk in this mode is often different than the bolder leader of a trio or larger group – and there's a more introspective quality to the record ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Riverside, 1957. Near Mint- ... $29.99
An unlikely pair, but a great one here – and the record's one of those few magical moments where bringing together unusual partners actually works! Mulligan's cool hardly seems a match for Monk's angular modernism, but together the players seem to strike a middle ground that resonates with ... (Jazz) read more LP, Vinyl record album
