Weekend self-care open thread: Thelonious

Of late, I've been sampling the songbook of one Thelonious Monk.

Along with John Coltrane, Monk brought jazz from be bop to an experimental art form concerned with expression and complex themes. And for all that, he still swung.

Without further ado, the music.

As always, be bold, be beautiful, and be good. And swing!
