My addition to the old albums reissued on unnecessary colored vinyl posts: Thelonious Monk - Monk's Dream (infosec.pub)

Especially egregious since it doesn't even have the song Blue Monk on this album.

Aside from that, the album is absolutely divine. Thelonious and Charlie Rouse are on another level entirely on this session.

I’m looking to get my first Monk album. Where should I start?

Genius of Modern Music, Vol. 1 is probably as good a starting point as anything. My personal favorites are Brilliant Corners and Monk and Coltrane at Town Hall.

If you want a cool album jacket, there are a bunch of greats, but I'd mention Underground and Monk's Music as great albums with awesome cover art. Whatever you go with, good luck and welcome aboard!
