I probably think of Monk as a composer first and I do love his music. By the way North Coast Brewing Co. has honored him with a Belgian style ale called Brother Thelonious. I bought it mainly for the bottle with Monk's picture on it. I figured if the ale was no good at least I'll have a decoration for my stereo room. It turns out it is worthy of the master and it is almost weening me off of stout.
By the way I just thought of an other SF Bay area pianist who needs to be on the list. Tammy Hall
A couple of years ago I heard her live accompanying Kim Nalley. A few months back she was at KCSM's Jazz On The Hill accompaning Barbara Dane. In addition to being a great pianist, she is a monster B3 player.
