Email us your complaints (or questions / comments) at 1001AlbumComplaints@gmail.com
Thelonius Monk felt misunderstood for most of his career, but had a breakthrough on Brilliant Corners. The boys discuss notoriously difficult songs, an all-star backing band, and what it's like to be clenching your jaw through Take 24 in the recording studio.
