As a kid, I remember listening to my dad's record, Monk in quintet with Frank Foster, Ray Copeland, Art BLACKEY, and Curley Russell...

There were two mysteries about this album: First of all, a bit of white paint was so encrusted in the vinyl at the beginning of "we see" that each time it was played, it started in the middle of the song.

I've always wondered how it began...and where that paint ever came from! Secondly, since there had only been 4 songs recorded, the record was so much smaller and so much heavier than a normal 33 ( that it looked like an old 78.)

All of this seemed extremely strange to me, but curiously enough, not the music that I listened to with such pleasure. I've always felt very close to Monk's musical universe. undoubtedly, it's because of his sense of humor immediately found within his composition, and the thematic and repetitive treatment of his playing (which is similar to mine). It's also for the personal and mysterious manner that Monk has of undoing and reconstructing with such perfect use of rhythm and silence. Here is my explanation for this new CD.

I've taken the liberty of arranging some of ' Thelonious ' songs that I love so much in my very own special way among which is "we see."
