I don´t want to BE a Monk copycat but somehow it happens, if I play a solo piece it might have some of Monk´s style, I mean the voicings. There is such a musical logical thing in it that you just fell you can´t do otherwise. My wife sometimes makes a little joke and want´s I do some personal "mini concerto" for her at home and she starts calling things I never had played or that are not my music. So once she said "do some classical stuff". I said "what ? I don´t know any classical music" but she insisted and somehow I had a little Chopin waltz in Ab in my head that I once heard and liked. And there I went, it sounded like if Monk plays Chopin. But since my wife also is no classic music conoisseur (she is primary a dancer) she dug it and said "you should get a tuxedo and play in such a concert hall only you" and didn´t understand that this is not my stuff. Then she asked me to play a Hildegard Knef waltz, and I did, since I like it, and again it sounded like Monk playing Knef 😄 Yes, i've always been partial to solo Monk. Probably the first I heard was this French 10" disc: But my favorite solo track is "Functional" from this album, where Monk and traditional piano blues (for which I'm also an enthusiast and even something of a practitioner) meet: Edited November 17, 2022 by BillF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say that was a crime; it's just that even though her husband took some of those shots, Moffitt's rather grim latter-day visage didn't fit well in a thread about fresh-faced California young ladies who graced West Coast Jazz album covers.

But what I like most from solo Monk playing is other songs, especially to hear how he re-harmonizes the song. You know, there is a special inner logic in the way Monk voices a chord, and there is a special thing that let´s a very old song even sound like if it´s played on an old slightly out of tune piano. Take "I love you Sweethearts of my Dreams". Sometimes if I play a little "private solo set" for my wife I close that "set" with this tune. 12 hours ago, Peter Friedman said: Never saw that: those four musicians......seems to be a "dream team" .
