The complete original album Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers with Thelonious Monk
As a bonus, an interesting live quartet version of "Bya-ya" with Monk, Blakey and Griffin and three extremely rare live versions of Monk tunes recorded by the Jazz Messengers during a TV show just a month after the studio album was made, and appearing here on cd for the first time ever!!
Although this album marks Thelonious Monk's sole recording as a member of Art Blakey's celebrated Jazz Messengers, the pianist and drummer were very close friends who understood each other well on both a personal and musical level. In fact, Blakey was present on both Monk's first and last studio sessions, spanning a period of 24 years from the 1947 quintet and trio recordings to the last sets taped in London in 1971, when Blakey and Monk were touring with the so-called "Giants of Jazz" (which also included Sonny Stitt, Dizzy Gillespie, Kai Winding and All McKibbon). In fact, all of these recordings (

In fact, all of these recordings (the 1947 sessions debuting the very personal musical conception of Thelonious Monk, this amazing 1957 session with the Messengers made during the highest point of Monk's career and the 1971 London session) are true masterpieces in their own right. And Art Blakey's presence on all of them is not purely accidental as he and Monk shared a common artistic feeling.
