A Bit Of Monk

Pianist Sadik Hakim channels Thelonious Monk with sharp, inventive playing that balances angular sophistication with warmth. This trio explores Monk's legacy through a distinctly soulful lens, drawing parallels to Cedar Walton's Monkish interpretations. The unusual pairing of Errol Walters on bass and Satguro Singh creates an intriguing sonic landscape, capturing how Monk's influence rippled through jazz in the late 70s and beyond—reimagined with fresh energy and depth.
