The jazz giant Thelonious Monk is here featured in this live recording in New York. Monk is in his best form during this Village Gate gig, along with famed session men accompanying him here and forming this solid quartet - namely, Charlie Rouse on tenor saxophone, John Ore on the bass, and Frankie Dunlop on the drums. The album features three Monk's originals ("Rhythm-a-Ning," "Evidence," "Jackie-ing") and two jazz standards ("I'm Getting Sentimental Over You" and the immortal "Body and Soul" in two takes).
