When the cats are at play, the mouse has to stay away, which I (being the mouse) totally understand, but had I known this was all about Monk(and I'll no doubt get into more bother with Lance for not knowing), I'd have spoilt his little game anyway.
I've confessed before to being a Monk philistine but haven't given up and I'm still fascinated by him.
I wonder how much this was inspired by the historic Monk/Trane collaborations considered so vital to the latters development.
You're not alone re Monk. It took me a long time to appreciate the creativity of the man - as a pianist (I once heard him referred to as the 'Les Dawson of jazz') However, what was immediately apparent to me was his merit as a composer. Monk is up there with Ellington (another sometimes quirky pianist), Mingus, Stan Tracey, Gil/Bill Evans, Tadd Dameron and a handful more.
