Editorial Reviews
"...We are granted a closer glance behind the veil of this half-hidden, exotically gifted figure than could ever be observed during his sadly aborted career..."
Los Angeles Times - Leonar Feather (11/17/1989)

"...This solid documentary of the jazz piano legend has a remarkable genesis....It is enriched -- or rather 'made' - by rare Monk footage shot in 1967..."
USA Today - Mike Clark (10/26/1990)
