@ teddy, Last night, on Spotify, I listened to the album you had mentioned, namely Esbjorn Svensson Trio Plays Monk. Overall, I enjoyed it, except for the first two songs where it sounded as if they had inserted a string section. I really liked his cover of Beimsha Swing. Howver, I really think the original versions done by Monk are better. I also don't understand why they left out Straight, No Chaser, which--IMHO--is a Monkian classic and one of my all time faves. On balance, I liked the Retrospective album better than both this and Leucocyte. Hooray for Spotify, it's really a great tool! :clap:
