Re: (TV) Jazz Monk

["Per Rosén" <per_m_rosen@hotmail.com>]

E-Music has a lot of Jazz (for example the Fantasy label). I have an 
"unlimited" subscription wich means that I can download as much as I want 
for 10bucks/month. (You get serious problems, because you never have time to 
listen to everything. Even worse, you're may not allowed to play jazz at 
home...)

Can you, Maurice, or anyone else recommend some of the 18 Monk-titles, or do 
you think that everything is worth downloading?
