Monk is one of those Jazz giants you can really 'get into'. He was considered a strange fellow at first (a nut to some) and someone whose piano technique was doubtful (non-existent to some). And then suddenly in the late fifties someone discovered he was a genius. With hindsight many people claim that in fact he always was a genius, a man ahead of his time, an original. Better leave that judgement to those in the know: John Coltrane said of Monk; "He is a musical architect of the highest order".
'Straight, No Chaser' is a studio album in the classical jazz traditon. The SACD is a transfer of the re-issue and thus contains the full 25 minutes originally not found on the LP. 'Green Chimneys' was not on the LP for example. Overall a lot of edits were made to compose this re-issued album which now appears on SACD with this disc.
