The music was recorded live in Copenhagen in 1963 at the peak of Monk's career. A year later he was to feature on the cover of TIME magazine, one of only for four jazz artists ever to do so. The performance, a mixture of Monk originals and interpretations of standards, showcases Monk at his prime: full of avant-garde flair and wit, but always with a swinging feel that explains his title as the \"High Priest of Bebop.\" The original tapes, saved from a skip and blessed with the approval of the Monk estate, have been faithfully restored, mastered and cut using Gearbox's legendary all-analogue process.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Forced Exposure","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45066176725200,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0554\/4201\/4416\/files\/monkmonk.jpg?v=1783537103","url":"https:\/\/www.grapefruitrecordclub.com\/products\/thelonious-monk-monk-lp-1","provider":"Grapefruit Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
