Sometimes thirty minutes is all it takes

Many would say Thelonious Monk was at his best in the early 50's, and it was certainly his most creative period. Sonny Rollins was one of the few people who could keep up with him and in 53 they put out " Thelonious Monk & Sonny Rollins". It's fairly short with only five tracks clocking in at 34 minutes but it's two of the best playing well together, 34 minutes is really all you need.
