Straight, No Chaser
Album by Thelonious Monk
Straight, No Chaser is a studio album by American jazz pianist Thelonious Monk, released in 1967. Musically it showcases Monk's idiosyncratic take on modern jazz — angular melodies, percussive piano touch, dissonant harmonies and stop-start rhythmic phrasing — and sits within his late-1960s output as part of his continued development from bebop toward more exploratory post-bop textures.
