Our Take

The latest reissue of Thelonious Monk Quartet's classic album "Misterioso" on yellow vinyl is like a burst of sunshine on a dreary day. This vibrant pressing adds a much-needed pop of colour to any record collection, not to mention the timeless music contained within.

Monk's playful piano work is front and centre on this album, showcasing his innovative approach to harmony and melody. Joined by saxophonist Johnny Griffin, bassist Ahmed Abdul-Malik, and drummer Roy Haynes, the quartet weaves intricate musical tapestries that are as mesmerising as they are unpredictable.

From the funky groove of "Nutty" to the frenetic energy of "Misterioso," each track is a showcase of Monk's singular genius. His quirky rhythms and off-kilter phrasing keep listeners on their toes, never quite knowing where the music will go next.

But it's not just Monk's virtuosity that shines on this album – the interplay between the quartet members is nothing short of magical. Griffin's fiery saxophone solos complement Monk's playful piano lines, while Abdul-Malik and Haynes provide a rock-solid foundation for the group to build upon.

In short, "Misterioso" is a must-have for any jazz enthusiast, and this yellow vinyl reissue is the perfect way to experience Monk's music in all its technicolour glory. So grab a copy, drop the needle, and let the magic of Thelonious Monk Quartet wash over you.
