Album

The Unique Thelonious Monk is a 1956 album by Thelonious Monk. It was his second for Riverside Records, and like his Riverside debut, is made up of standards. It was a continuation of Riverside's strategy to broaden consumer interest in Monk by having him record cover versions of well-known material which, Riverside hoped, would help to break down the prevailing perception that Monk's original music was too difficult for mass-market acceptance.

The seven-song Unique Thelonious Monk 1956 platter was the pianist's second during his remarkable five-year tenure on Riverside. His debut for the label was the aptly titled Plays Duke Ellington 1955 and once again, on this disc, Monk's song selection did not feature any original compositions. Rather, the well-chosen standards included exemplify and help further establish the pianist and bandleader within the context of familiar melodies at the head of a trio - consisting of Oscar Pettiford bass and Art Blakey drums.
