"With Thelonious Monk"
Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers with Thelonious Monk is a studio album released in 1958 on Atlantic Records, catalogue SD 1278.

Allmusic gave the album a four-star rating of a possible five stars, with writer Lindsay Planer noting that "both co-leaders are at the peak of their respective prowess with insightful interpretations of nearly half a dozen inspired performances from this incarnation of the Blakey-led Jazz Messengers." The Penguin Guide to Jazz assigned its "crown" accolade to the album.

Sebbene questo album rappresenti l’unica registrazione di Thelonious Monk come membro dei celebri Jazz Messengers di Art Blakey, il pianista e il batterista sono stati amici intimi con una grande intesa sia umana che musicale. Non a caso Blakey è presente sia nella prima che nell’ultima sessione in studio di Monk, dalla registrazione in quintetto e trio del 1947 a quella londinese del 1971, Blakey e Monk erano in tour con il gruppo chiamato “Giants of Jazz” (che comprendeva anche Sonny Stitt, Dizzy Gillespie, Kai Winding e Al McKibbon). Blakey non ha mai fatto mistero della sua ammirazione per Monk, sia come pianista che come compositore. Infatti, con l'eccezione di "Purple Shades" di Johnny Griffin, tutte le composizioni di questo album del 1957 sono brani classici di Thelonious Monk. Oltre ai due straordinari musicisti già citati completano la formazione impegnata in questa sessione: Johnny Griffin (sax tenore), Bill Hardman (tromba) e Spanky Debrest (contrabbasso).
