Oh, you've gone and done a good thing. It's been beautifully remastered, unbelievable quality. Thank you so much for finding this and posting it. Nice channel also with great music taste. Keep up the great work!
Nasz Czesław Niemen też zaczął mieć wtedy problemy mieszkaniowe, ale jednak to była sytuacja o wiele większego skupienia się władzy na ograniczaniu możliwości działania artystów i angażowania do tego budżetu państwa.
Great upload!.. This group played two concerts in Melbourne in ‘63, and I went to both. First night was fine; though the town hall was only about half full. A friend of mine had a chance meeting with Monk next day in town, in a shoe shop, trying on shoes. My mate Barry said it looked like Monk was trying on every pair of shoes in the shop. Referring to the poor turnout the night before Barry asked Monk if maybe the town hall was too big a venue for this kind of music, and Monk replied that it’s not so much that the town hall was too big; the people were too small. Second night it was a different story. Standing room only and the music soared; the groove was out of this world.
thanks for sharing, jazz pianist here, one question: Monk's music seems to me quite advanced for the time back then. How do you explain the appeal he had (filling half a hall is a success), and what kind of appeal was it? --- also he made it to the Time mag cover....so there is definitively some mass appeal, but how come with a genius wizard like Monk?
