Thelonious Monk, alone with the piano. Nothing else needed.

Monk laying out

Spectacular album

This rendition of “Caravan” with Monk at the piano has been my inner soundtrack for years. Makes doing chores much more jaunty.

My favorite version of Ruby, My Dear.

Whenever I hear his music, I think of New Orleans. The Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz Performance is a full-scholarship, graduate program at Loyola in New Orleans for gifted musicians. 💙
