Monk, considered one of the greatest Jazz pianists of all time, recorded Underground
in '67-'68. It's the last recording with the Thelonious Monk Quartet
(Larry Gales on bass, Charlie Rouse on tenor sax, and Ben Riley on
drums) and one of the last album he made for Columbia.
What makes Underground
special is that unlike his other Columbia recordings, four out of the
seven songs were newly composed and recorded. Not to mention its
striking cover artwork, which depicts Monk as a French Resistance member
in a particularly messy attic. Music On Vinyl is especially proud to
announce that this recording has been specially re-mastered in the US
for this vinyl edition from the original tapes.
