Something Blue - Bolivar - August 15, 2015 Thelonius Monk - Monk's Dream Barry Harris - Breakin It Up Terri Lyne Carrington - Money Jungle Colin Ross - Trio Sampler - colinrossmusic.com ----- Thelonius Monk, Monk's Dream Welcome to Something Blue. I'm Hairy Larry and I've got the blues, for you. Thelonius Monk, Five Spot Blues Thelonius Monk, Bolivar Blues Oh yeah, that's Thelonius Monk playing the blues for you. From his classic jazz album "Monk's Dream" we heard "Monk's Dream", "Five Spot Blues", and "Bolivar Blues". Monk is one of the top jazz composers of the twentieth century and his work, which defined Bebop, was always based in the blues.

I use the Freegal music service at the public library to find music for Something Blue all the time. I downloaded these next three songs played by Colin Ross from his website colinrossmusic.com. Colin spells his name with only one "L". There's more songs on his website including quite a bit of boogie based jazz. Closing the show tonight from Colin Ross's "Trio Sampler" here's "St. James Infirmary", "Burblin", and "Sierra". Colin Ross, St. James Infirmary Colin Ross, Burblin Colin Ross, Sierra
