Thelonious Monkās 25 Tips for Musicians (1960)

'T. Monk's Advice' as delivered to saxophonist Steve Lacy in 1960 Just because youāre not a drummer, doesnāt mean that you donāt have to keep time. Pat your foot and sing the melody in your head when you play. Stop playing all that bull5hit, those weird notes, play the melody! Make the drummer sound good. Discrimination is important. Youāve got to dig it to dig it, you dig? All reet! Always know It must be always night, otherwise they wouldnāt need the lights. Letās lift the band stand!! I want to avoid the hecklers. Donāt play the piano part, I am playing that. Donāt listen to me, I am supposed to be accompanying you! The inside of the tune (the bridge) is the part that makes the outside sound good. Donāt play everything (or everytime); let some things go by. Some music just imagined. What you donāt play can be more important than what you do play. A note can be small as a pin or as big as the world, it depends on your imagination. Stay in shape! Sometimes a musician waits for a gig & when it comes, heās out of shape & canāt make it. When you are swinging, swing some more! (What should we wear tonight?) Sharp as possible! Always leave them wanting more. Donāt sound anybody for a gig, just be on the scene. Those pieces were written so as to have something to play & to get cats interested enough to come to rehearsal! Youāve got it! If you donāt want to play, tell a joke or dance, but in any case, you got it! (to a drummer who didnāt want to solo). Whatever you think canāt be done, somebody will come along & do it. A genius is the one most like himself. They tried to get me to hate white people, but someone would always come along & spoil it.
