The record
Issued in Japan in 1964 as SMJ-7249, this Prestige compilation gathers eight Monk performances -- 'Blue Monk', 'Locomotive', 'Bemsha Swing', 'Work' and 'Nutty' among them, with 'Smoke Gets In Your Eyes' and 'The Way You Look Tonight' for contrast. No personnel is documented beyond Monk himself, so treat it as a sampler rather than the record of a single session.
