Released in 1965, Solo Monk stands as one of the most intimate and revealing records in Thelonious Monk's celebrated catalog. Recorded entirely as a solo piano album, it strips away the ensemble to leave just Monk and his instrument — showcasing the full depth of his singular, unconventional style. Rated among the best albums of 1965, it remains a landmark work in jazz history.
This 2014 reissue from Music On Vinyl brings Solo Monk back to vinyl with care, pressed in the Netherlands and presented in a non-laminated sleeve complete with original liner notes. For jazz enthusiasts and collectors alike, it offers a rare chance to experience Monk's unaccompanied piano work in the warm, analog format it deserves.
