  Dear Allan:

Note that the second piano solo at the 5 minute mark, after JJ  
Johnson's solo,  is not Monk, but rather Horace Silver who slipped  
seamlessly into the piano chair to back JJ's solo. This is one of my  
all time favorite Blues. Here's the link again.

I went to school on this record. Two of my favorite jazz pianists.  
Monk & Silver. Saw, and spoke to them a lot in my miss spent youth.  
Not to mention Sonny Rollins, Art Blakey and Paul Chambers. Funny  
thing about Monk. He was, in his youth, a stride pianist.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
