Monk on Monk
Monk on Monk is an album by the drummer T. S. Monk, recorded in 1997 and released on the N2K label.
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "To celebrate what would have been his father Thelonious Monk's 80th birthday, drummer T.S. Monk put together an all-star group (an expanded version of his sextet) and toured, performing an all-Thelonious program. Just prior to the beginning of the live performances, T.S. and his band recorded this CD. The music is excellent, but there are so many guest artists making cameo appearances that one never really gets to hear Monk's band very much ... this set is recommended. But one is left looking forward to hearing the actual T.S. Monk ensemble interpret the songs". On All About Jazz, Jack Bowers wrote: "Herein are nine of Monk’s matchless compositions, ably refashioned by T.S. and colleagues with an abundance of spirit and a scrupulous aversion to needless parody ... his is Monk with a contemporary flavor, and no less appetizing because of it".
