Description
Concord, 1957
Thelonious Monk was considered one of the most challenging, provocative and disturbing figures in modern music. His music was regarded as difficult to listen to and understand, causing many fans initially to shy away from trying to dig Monk. This album helped remedy that problem. Brilliant Corners, an album of mostly self-penned numbers, is one of his greatest recordings. While still not casual listening, its pure brilliance and vitality can reach just about any listener.
