The Thelonious Monk Estate presents Monk Live In Paris, 1967, Volume One, a newly restored recording of one of the most elusive performances from Monk’s European tour. Captured at Salle Pleyel in 1967, this release documents Monk at the height of his creative powers, leading his classic quartet: Charlie Rouse, Larry Gales, and Ben Riley. Long circulated in unauthorized form, this performance is now officially released as part of a new archival series—reclaiming and preserving Monk’s legacy. A rare, expanded ensemble with Phil Woods, Jimmy Cleveland, Ray Copeland, and Johnny Griffin. A performance that unfolds—spontaneous, exploratory, alive in real time.
