Thelonious Monk fans, did you know that Sunday (October 10) is his birthday, and..?

On radio station WKCR(.org), they are celebrating by playing only Monk music for the entire 24 hours of his birthday. Are you going to listen?

http://www.studentaffairs.columbia.edu/wkcr/

PS- If yo listen to this station you should contribute when they have their rare fund raisers. The whole staff is volunteer, and they play music that you won't hear anywhere else on the radio.

Update:

Hey Stan, you can listen online. WKCR.org

    Oh! This is great!

    Thanks so much for this info! I so love Monk!

    Hope it's a rainy day so I can kick back in my sweats and sweatshirt, rain in the background, close my eyes and just soak it all in.

    Awesome! Go the date on my calendar and the radio station on my "Favorites" bar!

    All ready to go! Woooooo Hoooooooooooo!!

    Thank you again!

    Yes i know this but residing in the UK am unable to listen, it's nice to see the recognition of this great musician, (one of the founders of bebop), being given the air time in celebration of his work, should be more of this over here.
