Today’s random record shelf pull…
Thelonious Monk “Newport ‘59” 1959/2013
It’s been a long time since I’ve had a good sit down jazz listening session so this was a welcome pick! This is such an excellent live recording that I can’t understand why it’s so obscure! I always enjoy Monk albums so I may be a little biased. I’ll probably be alternating Monk and Bud Powell this afternoon because in my mind they go together like left and right!
Unfortunately I can’t find audio of Newport ‘59 online! So here’s Monk at Newport in 1958 from the movie “Jazz On A Summers Day” by Bert Stern. The whole movie is great. Worth seeking out!

I had an idea a few years ago to do my own version of some famous Jazz/Blues festival posters from the 50s and 60s.
Here’s my first pass at one! Hope you guys like it!
