An amazing copy very conservative grading of the record.Thelonious Monk – Solo Monk
A master alone at the piano — raw, intimate, and utterly brilliant. Solo Monk (1965) strips everything back to just Thelonious Monk and his unmistakable touch: angular melodies, playful phrasing, deep swing, and silence used like rhythm. Standards like “Dinah,” “Lulu’s Back in Town,” and “These Foolish Things” sit alongside Monk originals, each performance full of personality, humour, and genius. It’s jazz distilled — tender, quirky, soulful, and absolutely singular. Clean vinyl, warm recording — a must-have for jazz lovers and collectors who want Monk in his purest form. No band, no filter — just Monk speaking truth through
