Thelonious Monk Quartet - Monk In Tokyo - Speakers Corner LP

180-Gram Double LP

Recorded live at Tokyo's Sankei Hall on May 21, 1963, Monk in Tokyo captures the Thelonious Monk Quartet during a period when the pianist had all but withdrawn from the concert stage. The double album gathers solidly played favorites like "Just A Gigolo" alongside Monk staples "Blue Monk," "Epistrophy" and "Bemsha Swing" - happy memories for the Japanese fans who were there, and for collectors today.
