Description

‘Misterioso’ is a 1958 live album by American jazz ensemble the Thelonious Monk Quartet. It is featuring drummer Roy Haynes, bassist Ahmed Abdul-Malik, and tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin. Along with ‘Thelonious in Action’, ‘Misterioso’ captures portions of the ensemble’s August 7 show at the Five Spot Café in the Bowery neighborhood of Manhattan.
