Recorded at Reeves Sound Studios, New York, New York on June 1 & 2, 1959. Originally released on Riverside (1150).The title of this 1959 album nicely mirrors some of what makes Thelonious Monk so magical. He took common, simple elements and made them resonate with his personality. (Note: the original five pieces have been expanded to seven with the inclusion of two alternate takes.) Monk brought Thad Jones on board for an extra harmonic line in the compositions, as well as his spirited soloing. "Jackie-ing," named for his niece, opens the album like a national anthem being paraded through some country where we all ought to be living at least some of the time. And then 55 minutes later it all wraps up with "Ask Me Now"--surely one of the most beautiful pieces in jazz or any idiom.
