I have to say that I believe he was in fact there at the session, mostly due to checking the town that he works for website, and seeing he is indeed old enough.

I'm going to call bullshit on that one. You weren't at the "Brilliant Corners" session. I think this is something you're going to have to prove, because I sure as hell don't believe you.

"Brilliant Corners" was recorded 26 times I heard. This shows the kind of discipline and virtuosity one must have had to play Monk's music. All the pictures from the liner notes of "Brilliant Corners" show great frustration I think from this session. It wasn't that the musicians couldn't play it, it was more a matter of actually understanding it. That will forever be Monk's legacy. He made even the greatest jazz musicians break out in cold sweats.
