This has always been my favorite rendition of Thelonious Monk’s ‘Round Midnight … so much so, that I couldn’t resist adding my own visual interpretation of the mood it evokes. This is music for a rainy night.  Music for lonely lovers and all those others seeking shelter from the storm, needing comfort for the soul.

By request, for the first time in six years on Mark Of Jazz, I am repeating a post (May 12, 2017).  Besides Chet, the players in this set are unidentified and I’m not sure exactly where this particular performance came from, but I think it’s worth sharing one more once.
