Live Album Polls For The Great Jazz Artists
I have polls for the following artists: – Louis Armstrong – Count Basie – John Coltrane – Miles Davis – Eric Dolphy – Duke Ellington – Dizzy Gillespie – Billie Holiday – Charles Mingus – Thelonious Monk – Charlie Parker – Lester Young –
Live At The It Club is a live album by jazz piano great Thelonious Monk and his band.
It was recorded on October 31 and November 1, 1964 and was finally released in 1982.
In 1998 it was extended to include virtually the complete performance. I’ve read that the tape for one song was flawed.
Playing on this album are:
Thelonious Monk – piano,
Charlie Rouse – tenor sax,
Larry Gales – bass,
Ben Riley – drums.
