Video: Scandi Blue Monk

Thelonious Monk is one of my favorite jazz piano players. Sometimes, I often refer to Monk in my Phishy recaps, specifically when describing some of Page's solos when he's pecking away (with lots of space in between) like Monk.

Here's a performance recorded in Olso, Norway circa 1966. I love Monk's hat, his trademark over the years.
