is the seventh album Thelonious Monk released for Columbia Records, featuring several original compositions as well as jazz standards. The track "Pannonica" is a tribute to the jazz patron Nica de Koenigswarter. The track "Teo" is a tribute to the albums' producer Teo Macero. The album cover is a photo of Monk taken by W. Eugene Smith in 1959. Between 1957 and 1965, Monk and other prominent New York jazz musicians rehearsed at the photographer's home, nicknamed 'The Jazz Loft'.

Thelonious Monk was a pivotal figure in the history of jazz, using dissonance as an asset rather than a mistake. His compositions and playing style are uniquely his and his alone. Though often imitated, no one has ever come close to matching what he was pulling off 70 years ago! Throughout his recorded career, he can be heard playing solo piano, with small combos and with big bands and orchestras. No matter what is happening around him, the music always has a specifically unique Monk-ness to it. Let’s do this. Monk flutters on two notes, then resolves it, does it again, and then hits a fantastic run that transitions perfectly to the B section. The trio swings with such ease through the compositions that it would be easy with a cursory listen to disregard the complexity. How does one even begin to write a tune like Trinkle, Tinkle -let alone have a group play it with conviction and mastery.
