Thelonious Monk was among the true giants of jazz. His idiosyncratic piano style, sublime compositions, thrilling “live” performances and eccentric personality secured him a place in the pantheon of American music legends. Now with the advent of Thelonious Records (founded by Thelonious Monk's son T.S. Monk), a treasure chest of never before released concert recordings from the Thelonious Monk archives will be released for the world to hear for the first time ever. The Latest, Monk 'Round The World, is the second installment from the label, and documents a series of Monk performances from around the world throughout the 1960s. On each cut, Monk is side by side with his proverbial Tanto¬¬--Charlie Rouse. Classics such as “Blue Monk” “Ruby My Dear” and “Bemsha Swing” are treated brilliantly in rousing renditions that surely rank among the greatest “live” Monk performances ever made available. A special free bonus DVD has also been included containing a Monk Performance from 1965 London, England.
