Live At The It Club
Live at the It Club is a Thelonious Monk album recorded in 1964 and released by Columbia Records. It features original Monk compositions along with various standard jazz tracks. This recording showcases the legendary jazz pianist and composer at the peak of his career, partnered with his regular sidemen, saxophonist Charlie Rouse and drummer Ben Riley. The album is certainly a great sounding show by one of the offbeat geniuses in the history of jazz.
