Title: A Piano Genius
Review: Thelonius Monk was a piano genius and an alltogether talented music man. Having arranged all the instruments and written all of the music on the album, everything fits together. And when you think one of the 11 minute long tracks such as Straight, No Chaser might drag a little, it picks up or smooths out. There isn't a dull moment to complain of. It's all instrumental and all great jazz. It's the stuff of city lights in one moment and in the next it's the stuff of sitting next to the fire late at night. Either way, if you are a fan of jazz, you will certainly have a great appreciation for this album. Well done Mr. Monk.
