What was on the clowns mind who stopped them; he was not an aficionado, I heard the last beginning as being better than what they played after the interruption.Monk done got pissed, he ready to forget about it and go home.            https://www....

Lyrics for "Stolen Moments" are pure genius, they fit the music, and they work for me as permanent in the case of the original music.Monk played "Round Midnight" differently, every single solitary time he played it, now I'll let someone else tell ...

Rok's post where he mentioned Dee Dee's interpretation of Horace Silvers music is the best example of where I'm coming from.Dee Dee used words to describe Silver's music, but that's not the same as permanent lyrics; they lock you into thinking abo...

I haven't changed my mind about the lyrics, I will put that into it's proper perspective.

An "abstract" work of art, whether it's a painting, a sculpture, or in this case "jazz", which is an abstract musical art, takes on a life of it's own once it leaves the artist who created it. Examples of this are infinite.            https://ww...

Rok, I wouldn't advise it, too many "Dippy" lyrics have already been written to good music. You know, the only way I'll believe that Monk was going to attach some "Dippy" lyrics to "Round Midnight" is if he tells me himself; we know how likely th...

There is a female vocalist who's famous, that nobody has mentioned, but I've been playing one of her CD's that I bought in 1999 every since; that's 20 years.It's very uncharacteristic of me to play any music on a regular basis for this long,  but ...

You say that “Maiden Voyage” is no good with lyrics; seemingly without exception. Yet, you posted a Mandrade clip of “Maiden Voyage” which supposedly had lyrics and you referred to it as “boss”. I’m confused.Regards.I kept waiting for the words in...

Most jazz tunes are wordless music, it's only much later on that someone comes up with words for the tune. According to Frogman, Thelonious Monk originally wrote these lyrics for "Round Midnight"          Since you went away, I missed you.Every ho...
