1	Reflections: Steve Lacy Plays Thelonious Monk (1958) more music like this by Steve Lacy All of soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy's early recordings are quite fascinating, for during 1957-1964, aspects of his style at times hinted at Dixieland, swing, Monk, and Cecil Taylor, sometimes at the same time. For this CD reissue (a straight reproduction of the original New Jazz LP), Lacy teams up with pianist Mal Waldron, bassist Buell ... see all copies from $10.80! new only from $10.80!
2	The Complete Blue Note Recordings (1947) more music like this by Thelonious Monk This magnificent limited-edition set launched the Mosaic label in real style. Included are all of Thelonious Monk's Blue Note recordings, six sessions as a leader from 1947-52 complete with alternate takes plus two titles cut with tenor-saxophonist Sonny Rollins in 1957. Since these were Monk's first opportunities to lead his own recording dates, ... see all copies from $30.00! new only from $49.45!
3	Complete Prestige Recordings (2000) more music like this by Thelonious Monk Thelonious Monk was only with Prestige from 1952-1954, which explains why Fantasy's The Complete Prestige Recordings contains only three CDs. But Monk's Prestige output is noteworthy and generally rewarding, if imperfect at times. Not everything on The Complete Prestige Recordings is essential, but for the serious Monk collector, its rewards are ... see all copies from $25.55! new only from $25.55!
4	Sonny Rollins, Vol. 2 (1957) more music like this by Sonny Rollins Compared to his Prestige, Riverside, and Contemporary recordings of the 1950s, some of Rollins' appearances on Blue Note seemed anticlimactic, but none should be overlooked. This unusual album mostly has Rollins in an all-star quintet with trombonist J.J. Johnson, pianist Horace Silver, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Art Blakey, but Thelonious ... see all copies from $5.27! new only from $5.27!
5	Live at the Village Vanguard (1999) more music like this by Wynton Marsalis As if releasing eight single albums in 1999 weren't enough, Wynton Marsalis capped this deluge of material at the end of the year with a seven-CD mini-box of live recordings, taped over a five-year span at New York City's Village Vanguard club. Greed certainly wasn't the motive, for Sony Music priced the set at an unbelievably low $39.98, so the ... see all copies from $36.18! new only from $36.18!
6	Standard Time, Vol. 4: Marsalis Plays Monk (1999) by Wynton Marsalis As the fourth volume of Wynton Marsalis' ongoing Standard Time project, as well as the first volume of his planned eight-disc series Swinging into the 2, Marsalis Plays Monk arrives with some baggage -- but it isn't as great as the baggage that comes with tackling the compositions of Thelonious Monk, one of the greatest and most idiosyncratic ... see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
7	Reflections [1988] (1988) more music like this by Frank Morgan All-Stars Altoist Frank Morgan leads an all-star group on this excellent hard bop set. With tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, pianist Mulgrew Miller, bassist Ron Carter and drummer Al Foster also in the sextet, it is not surprising that Morgan sounds a bit inspired. The musicians all play up to their usual level, performing ... see all copies from $3.87! new only from $10.44!
8	Four in One (1982) more music like this by Sphere Tremendous tribute effort, outstanding versions of Monk classics. Top-flight Monk repertory effort. CD has two bonus cuts. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.00! new only from $15.87!
9	Ballads (2002) more music like this by Sonny Rollins Blue Note has done an admirable job of collecting the mellow material of a number of classic players for its Ballads series. Sonny Rollins' entry, like the others, finds the tenor in a late-night mood. The disc begins and ends with intimate trios offering fine renditions of "I Can't Get Started" and "Softly As in a Morning Sunrise," both featuring ... see all copies from $2.15! new only from $2.15!
10	Thelonious Alone in San Francisco [1991] (1959) more music like this by Thelonious Monk With the robust ambience of Fugazi Hall in San Francisco at his disposal, Thelonious Monk recorded ten unaccompanied tracks over two days to create a long-awaited sequel to his immensely endearing Thelonious Himself long-player. As had become somewhat customary for Monk, he brought with him a healthy sampling from his voluminous back catalog, ... see all copies from $6.89! new only from $10.29!
11 view cover	Thelonious Monk Trio (1952) more music like this by Thelonious Monk Trio Any Thelonious Monk album that kicks off with a seven-minute version of "Blue Monk" is worth listening to. Backed alternately by bassists Percy Heath and Gary Mapp and drummers Art Blakey and Max Roach, Monk unleashes his idiosyncratic piano lines against a spare backdrop. Beautifully rendered, the opening piece is a highlight of the album, oddly ... see all copies from $10.44! new only from $10.44!
12 view cover	Selections from the Village Vanguard Box (2000) more music like this by Wynton Marsalis Septet see all copies from $1.99! new only from $12.89!
13 view cover	Monk's Blues (1968) more music like this by Thelonious Monk Although nostalgia has allowed Monk's Blues to age more gracefully than perhaps the recording deserves, it remains an unfortunate fact that Thelonious Sphere Monk's final studio sessions were very poorly conceived. The idea of Monk performing with a big band was inspired nobly enough by the February '59 NYC Town Hall performance which was issued ... see all copies from $5.33! new only from $5.33!
14 view cover	Four in One (1993) more music like this by Sonny Fortune After years of erratic albums (other than two obscure efforts for the European Konnex label), altoist Sonny Fortune finally made a great recording with this release. Most selections feature Fortune (who plays flute on "Pannonica") joined by pianist Kirk Lightsey, bassist Buster Williams, and drummer Billy Hart; "Reflections" is a duet with ... see all copies from $4.82!
15 view cover	Monk in Motian (1988) more music like this by Paul Motian This is an utterly fascinating tribute to the music of Thelonious Monk. Most of the selections feature the unusual trio of tenor saxophonist Joe Lovano, guitarist Bill Frisell (who with his wide range of original sounds is really a one-band band), and drummer Paul Motian. Tenor saxophonist Dewey Redman and pianist Geri Allen are guests on two ... see all copies from $18.07! new only from $18.07!
16 view cover	At the Bimhuis 1982 (2006) more music like this by Steve Lacy/Mal Waldron see all copies from $18.07! new only from $18.07!
17 view cover	In the Key of Monk (1999) more music like this by Jessica Williams Jessica Williams' career took off during the 1990s with a series of memorable recordings for the Canadian label Jazz Focus, and this solo piano tribute to Thelonious Monk is one of her best live performances. She establishes her own voice right away with a playful approach to "Bemsha Swing," playing part of the introduction while muting the piano ... see all copies from $9.53! new only from $9.53!
18 view cover	A Proper Introduction to Thelonious Monk: Trinkle Tinkle (2004) more music like this by Thelonious Monk see all copies from $13.52! new only from $13.52!
19 view cover	Panamonk (1996) more music like this by Danilo Perez This is one of the more interesting Thelonious Monk tribute albums of the 1990s. Pianist Danilo Perez does not really sound much like Monk except in a couple places on purpose, but he has clearly learned from Monk's music, particularly in his use of space and quirky dissonances. The trio performances range from respectful ballads and Latinized ... see all copies from $15.33! new only from $15.33!
20 view cover	Reflections [1201 Music] (2001) more music like this by Dollar Brand see all copies from $10.37! new only from $10.37!
21 view cover	Finest in Jazz (2007) more music like this by Thelonious Monk With his angular piano lines, odd spaces and pauses, dissonant resolves, and quirky compositional sense, Thelonious Monk was a maverick among mavericks in the bop world, an enigma whose body of work is instantly recognizable, stubbornly consistent, and as insular and mysterious as it was when he first began recording as a bandleader some 60 years ... see all copies from $9.39! new only from $9.39!
22 view cover	Arthur 2: On the Rocks (1988) more music like this by Original Soundtrack see all copies from $10.00! new only from $59.95!
23 view cover	Spiral (1993) more music like this by Kenny Barron One of the more obscure releases by Kenny Barron, this hard to find CD of solo piano is worth seeking. Recorded in a Japanese studio in 1982, Barron's program includes an inspired take of McCoy Tyner's challenging "Passion Dance," a droll version of Thelonious Monk's "Reflections," an enchanting arrangement of Randy Weston's "Little Niles," and a ... see all copies from $10.97!
24 view cover	Great Sessions (2006) more music like this by Sonny Rollins see all copies from $24.87! new only from $24.87!
25 view cover	Piano Solo (1954) more music like this by Thelonious Monk see all copies from $10.82! new only from $10.82!
