unclehud May 04, 2013 - 05:15 | Apropos, as either Mr. Criss or Mr. Cross died this past week. Yes, you remember; the 70's child rappers wearing clothes backwards. More to the subject, anything by Mr. T. Monk is welcome on my speakers. |
hayduke2 Mar 02, 2013 - 14:41 | Hey some of you, lighten up! I feel this Monk piece is enlightening, and transfixing in ways, not the dreary dreck from the old Phil Schaap radio days |

In the 1950s sense, yes, being the spawn of the moods, rhythm, and atonality of Charles Mingus and Miles Davis. This would be more properly considered be-bop jazz. In the 1960s, avant garde would be redefined by Ornette Coleman and John Coltrane, among others, and that is nothing like this. |

Zep Nov 28, 2012 - 13:31 | I always love how he hits the first bar coming out of the tenor sax solo. How the bloody hell does he play that!?!? |

finoufk Jul 12, 2011 - 08:45 | who can stop that please ! "that's muzak to my ears".....can't stand it. I'll be back in quarter. |
Byronape Apr 08, 2011 - 11:15 | (In my best British accent...) "And now for something completely different...." I wonder if a soundbite of that is available somewhere that Bill could use. (Of course, adding that kind of production work would take some of the personal touch from RP.) Ahh, I love Monty Python. Too bad the wife just doesn't get it. |
socalhol Feb 04, 2011 - 15:48 | I love Monk, however I gotta say this particular one - not so much - kinda fingernails on chalkboard for me... |
lmic Feb 04, 2011 - 15:46 | I love Monk SO MUCH! |
