The first recordings ever issued under Thelonious Monks name are presented as
volume one in the Classics Thelonious Monk chronology. Although hed been an
active catalyst on the jazz scene for many years it wasnt until the autumn of
1947 that Monk was able to begin making records as a leader. These 20 Blue Note
sides are uniformly excellent; each of the pianists original compositions would
soon begin to form a musical canon of strikingly creative works that would
completely transform the ways in which jazz was conceived, structured, played,
received and understood. During this period, Monks groups included such vital
players as Milt Jackson, Art Blakey, Shadow Wilson, Gene Ramey, Idrees Sulieman,
Sahib Shihab and Ike Quebecs cousin Danny Quebec West. Monks quartet session of
July 2, 1948 features two pleasant vocals by Kenny Pancho Hagood. Note that
Evidence, based upon the chord progressions of Just You, Just Me, was originally
titled Just Us. Legend has it that after he realized that the recording engineer
had mistakenly written down Justice, Monk decided that if he was going to court
hed be sure and bring along the Evidence.
