yesterday was the 105th anniversary of Thelonious Monk's birth. one of my hobbies is trying to work his tunes out on the steel, which started as a novelty but grew into an obsession. I never thought songs like Brilliant Corners or Thelonious could be played on our instrument -- I'm still not sure they can -- but it's fun trying.
on Oct 1st I challenged myself to record a video per day leading up to Monk's birthday on the 10th. these are quick takes, I didn't have too much time to spend getting them as perfect as I'd like, but here's what I've got so far. I will keep adding to the list as I go. if anyone is interested in tab for these songs, I'm working on that as well.
MONK HEADS on PSG
if you're a Monk fan, check out the 'Monk Heads on Wurly' series on youtube by Ryan Burns which is what inspired me to do the same. _________________ 1965 Emmons S-10, 3x5 • Emmons LLIII D-10, 10x12 • JCH D-10, 10x12 • Beard MA-8 • Oahu Tonemaster |

The uses of Tablature is addictive and has been linked to reduced musical fertility.
