Thelonious Monk was a pivotal figure in the history of jazz, using dissonance as an asset rather than a mistake. His compositions and playing style are uniquely his and his alone. What’s particularly rad about this album is that it’s pieced together from several different recording sessions, meaning you get to hear Monk play with cats like Max Roach and Art Blakey, but you don’t really notice. Instead, it’s all about listening to the way that Monk leads his trio through his classics, including the almighty Bemsha Swing and Little Rootie Tootie. It’s like sitting in on a jam session that actually goes somewhere (no shots)
Misterioso is a 1958 live album by American jazz ensemble the Thelonious Monk Quartet. By the time of its recording, pianist and bandleader Thelonious Monk had overcome an extended period of career difficulties and achieved stardom with his residency at New York's Five Spot Café, beginning in 1957. He returned there the following year for a second stint with his quartet, featuring drummer Roy Haynes, bassist Ahmed Abdul-Malik, and tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin.
