duaneiac Posted November 10, 2018 Report Posted November 10, 2018 I hope I'm not alone in this, but every time I listen to a Monk recording, I laugh out loud -- well "at" is not the correct word, nor is "with" right, maybe "because of" is the best phrase -- Monk's playing. Because his playing is so audacious -- seemingly simple, yet so profoundly deep, so corny on the surface, yet so very hip in the details. On this disc, I was laughing with joy quite a bit as he played "The Man I Love". Quote
