This release has long been considered Thelonious Monk’s acknowledgement to the flourishing youthoriented subculture from whence the collection takes its name. Certainly the Grammy-winning cover – which depicts Monk as a World War II French revolutionary toting an automatic weapon – gave the establishment more than the brilliant swinging sounds in the grooves to consider. Underground became Monk’s penultimate studio album, as well as the final release to feature the ‘60s quartet: Charlie Rouse, Ben Riley, and Larry Gales. This 180 gram audiophile-grade pressing was mastered from analog tapes.

“Each musician functions as an extension of the other, creating solos that weave synchronically as if performed by the same pair of hands.” -Lindsay Planer, allmusic.com
