BeBop Posted April 4, 2014 Report Posted April 4, 2014 Any suggestions for sidemen? Elvis' band for Blue Hawaii included Boots Randolph (who was almost just like Charlie Rouse) and Alvino Rey. "In Memphis" had Bobby Emmons on organ, the spitting image of Monk himself. (Actually Boots was on lots of Elvis' recordings.) Quote

Hardbopjazz Posted April 9, 2014 Author Report Posted April 9, 2014 Of course, it was the Elvis session. Alfred Lion and Colonel Parker were close, and discussed swapping artists for a few sessions. Quote
mjzee Posted April 9, 2014 Report Posted April 9, 2014 I really liked that album, "50,000,000 Monk Fans Can't Be Wrong." Quote
