Comments for Coltrane, John, Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane

Trinkle Tinkle tears me up and is worth 3 times the cost of the cd

This is one of only two records that I`ve found of the shortperiod when `Trane worked with Monk in the Five Spot Cafeduring 1957, and the other one has very bad sound quality.The 2nd cut (Trinkle, Tinkle) still leaves me speech-lessevery time I hear it. `Trane said, "working w/Monk brought me close to a musical architect of the highest order. I feltI learned from him in every way - through the senses, theoretically, technically.... I could see a lot of thingsthat I didn`t know about at all"
