MONK THELONIOUS - "straight no chaser" Tablature
Official MONK THELONIOUS Tablature & Sheet Music »

Subject: TAB: Straight, No Chaser by Thelonious Monk
This is a 12-bar blues. The indicated chords are simple, but you can
alter or spice them up any way you wish. This tune is pretty typical
of Monk's melodic sense: it's simple, but wry and not obvious.
