I had the pleasure of listening to this for the first time today. Can't describe my feelings. Thanks for the recommendation Henry.

This is interesting because if anyone should know about Monk it’s his son, right? The earliest Monk on record was as a member of Coleman Hawkins’ quartet. Blue Note may have been the first to give Monk his own record dates, but Hawkins, universally acknowledged as an all-time great saxophonist and improviser, was the earliest prominent jazz musician who championed Monk as both a pianist and composer and hired him for gigs (sometimes over the objections of club owners, who felt Monk played too “far out”) so the “mystery” of Blue Note recording him is somewhat less mysterious. Also, it’s curious that T. Monk the younger would cite “Evidence” as an example of Monk’s rejection of standard chord progressions since it is based on the harmony of the standard pop tune “Just You, Just Me”- it’s the rhythmic displacement and voicing of the melody of “Evidence” that is unusual and creative. I agree that Monk’s music had an overwhelming influence on what came after, and I love it and listen to it often.

He was absolutely correct. Made it through it about four or five times now, and my only complaint is that I didn't listen to it sooner.

I dig Coltrane but this gushing over him is soooooo lame.

the first THREE Saints albums are tremendous.

truth.

rollins just described the way to learn something from. its when youre defnintely shaken by anything beyond your save milktoasty mindsets. if its gross it may informs you, and information isnt meant as news, its one part of the two way principle of semiotics: information and redundance.

There are many covers of Joy Division songs, and some truly amazing. The odd thing is that no matter how interesting the cover sounds it still lacks certain fragments of magic.

Thank you Henry, I'm planning to take my own life at the end of the week.

Henry, you’re a fucking badass.

It's a groundbreaking album

Suicide Saved My Life!.

Vol 4 is great too

We lived and experienced the best in Music days of old…

One of the most precious records in my collection. The Saints sound reminded me of The Stooges who they were heavily influenced by by Chris Bailey's distinctive voice along with that ferocious band put there vet own touch on the genre. Henry feels the same way I do about The Saints and I'm stranded as an album.

I like Closer more but yes, Unknown Pleasures is a masterpiece

i've been listening to this album on repeat the last few days and went looking for this video to say that rollins is right.

Zero lies detected

When Henry Rollins gives you music recomendations, you check them, without hesitation.

gotta agree with Hank here, its a great but menancing album. the riff of ghost rider due to its repetive nature lives rent free when i sometimes try to sleep. what fun. :)

Listen to New Order.

Preach

I am lucky enough to have the original pressing since new which I rarely play, I use the cd copy as a go to . I have all their work including a German bootleg again from new.

1. Closer 2. Unknown Pleasures 3. Substance (yes i know its a compilation.) 4. Still and anything else

Led Zeppelin - Fun Black Sabbath - Life Changing

So true!!!

Slightly unfortunate video title, mate lol

In 1948 critic George T. Simon interviewed Thelonious Monk and he criticized other bebop musicians for basing their songs on the chord changes of pre-existing standards. "I like to make up my own chords and melodies," he said. He also said, "My time for fame will come," and predicted that the records he'd just made for Blue Note would help make that happen. They did.

I agree. I would have liked to hear why.

.... Franikie's dead.... AHHHHHHAhahhhhhhhhhhhh

I share Henrys respect and love for the band, they were very different from ramones and sex pistols, they felt more mature as my mom calls them and i happen to agree

HEAR! HEAR!

Listen to new dawn fades with lyrics. So dark and foreshadowing

And the 'PC' 'structure' REALLY needs to be questioned and shoved!

I like most of the artists and records which he digs, but I CANNOT STAND the way in which this guy talks about things!

I remember seeing a deathcore band at a small night club. They were a local band. But holy shit they had skill and talent. I thought it was going to suck ass through a coffee straw. I was clearly wrong. It's true. You hear everything, see everything. Feel everything. While it wasn't a punk band, it was a very unique experience I never had before. Fun as fuck too. Mosh pit was great.

I love Henry. He's right about this.

Best video title I've ever seen.

Suicide is one of "the" bands of the 20th century. Along with the Velvets, it's absolute beauty, and absolute art. Nothing comes close.

JOY DIVISION - Easily as great as any band that ever existed... YES!

"bee bop bo beee bop bo" - a. vega

Rollins also did a cover of "Ghost Rider"

Insight...---...at full volume

'Essential' agree totally.

Om was terrible

Ascension! For life

Joy Division still sound like no-one else even today....God only knows what the world made of them when that album was originally released.

I know that Henry, I began to love Joy Division at age 16, I collected the whole set of albums, I treasure them, they are Geniuses, as are New Order, your Fan from Lana (Australia)🐈🐈👌👌

Is there any band, ever, that Rollins doesn’t rate as the most important ever? What an annoying, self-important twat.

😂henry your so funny..
