Live From The Field
On This Day In History
September 7 (Historical Milestone)
The High Priest of Bebop Debuts
On this day, eccentric keyboard wizard Thelonious Monk recorded his first seminal tracks for Blue Note. Introducing angular melodies, off-beat syncopation, and percussive silence, Monk rewrote modern jazz harmony. Easton Davy maps this unique stride rhythm through layered geometric sketches and watercolor collage blocks.
