Love the Monk. He's been a big influence on me personally. "Straight No Chaser" is worth seeing. You see his brilliance as well as his dark insanity.

That is a good one. There is another one called the Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane that is also good.

Also "Monk meets Mulligan" is essential.

You're a pretty big monk fan!! How about "Brilliant Corners" that one is my favourite.

No, unfortunately. I don't actually have that much, it was jsut coincidence I think. I have:

Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane
Monk and Coltrane at Carnegie Hall
Monk In Motion
and The Complete Colombia Solo Studio Recordings

That's about it. What am I missing?

I really like "Underground" I think it was his first recording with columbia. there is a great version of "In walked bud" with vocal by jon hendricks.

Have you seen the movie about him? "Straight no chaser"
