Live Monk is always a treat but Monk in Japan is a whole different level. 1963 finds him loose fiery playful and absolutely locked in with the band. Angular piano runs unexpected pauses that somehow swing and that trademark mix of chaos and genius only he could pull off. Proper electrifying live jazz from one of the greatest to ever touch a piano. FFO Charles Mingus, Bud Powell, Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane Quartet, Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers
