Message: [QUOTE="Bigboote, post: 4935097, member: 7631"] There is recorded evidence of what happens when the jazz combo isn't entirely together. There's a recording of Thelonius Monk's Well You Needn't in which Monk is cheesed off at the soloist. Monk feeds the soloist chords that are either in the wrong key or the wrong time, and puts all speculation to rest when he starts playing Pop goes the Weasel during the solo. Unfortunately I can't remember whether it was Miles Davis during those sessions when they supposedly got into a fistfight or John Coltrane when he was nodding off and missed coming in by several measures and you could hear Monk in the background shouting "Coltrane! Coltrane!". ;) [/QUOTE]
