Thelonious Monk discography

Thelonious Monk jazz pianist discography.

Discography

Blue Note Records (1948–1952)
Main article: Thelonious Monk Blue Note Sessions

The recording session dates reflect the CD editions of these albums. Prior LP versions contained the six Blue Note recording sessions in different, non-chronological configurations.

Later Releases:

Prestige Records (1952–1954)

Original 10" LPs

Before their eventually formulation into three somewhat haphazard, non-chronological 12-inch LPs, Thelonious Monk's Prestige output consisted of five strictly chronological LPs. The LPs were re-released by Craft Records in a limited edition in 2017. The LPs were released in the 1950s as follows:[1][2][3][4]

The majority of the contents of the first 4 of these five LPs were released, sequenced mostly in order, on a Prestige double-LP compilation in 1972, PR/PRT 24006, Thelonious Monk. The exception was the take of "Think of One" selected; on the compilation, Take 1 was used instead of the originally-selected Take 2.
