This Monk tune is so melodically and harmonically sophisticated and interesting. O.K., I should have used a metronome, but I uploaded this video anyway. Part of the time I play "outside" or against the chord structure. I try not to go so far out that I get lonely, which I tend to do when I play for myself. Besides Monk, Bill Evans playing this is my favorite.

Saturday Evening Jazz
In the tradition of Friday Night Musical offerings I submit some Jazz to liven up a Saturday Evening.
