    Fun fact: Monk dropped out of my high school after not making band

    I don’t know anything about Thelonius Monk. I tried to find this album visually in YouTube music. Is this a real album cover?

    I found this:

    So I used TinEye to search your posted image and got zero hits. I was wondering if it was an official variant or some fan art.

      Yes, it is a real album artwork. The album is on bandamp so you can find it there

        I’m too dumb to figure out bandcamp. The only album it wants to show me is Mønk.

        Turns out, that was just the first search result on DDG. I searched again and found a different album, but I’m finding it impossible to navigate to a list of his albums from any one album page.

        Try it. Either I’m really fucking dumb, or this website is terrible.

        https://theloniousmonkmusic.bandcamp.com/album/the-classic-quartet-remastered

        Stripping out everything other than the main URL, just redirects back to the last album I looked at.

        https://theloniousmonkmusic.bandcamp.com/

        If I go to the main page and do a search and tap on the artist listing in the search results, I still just get the one album:

        https://theloniousmonk.bandcamp.com/album/m-nk

        “View all merch” shows several versions of the one album I’m looking at. “Visit community” shows nothing because I’m not logged in.

        Searching for “Thelonious monk underground” produces one result that is not Thelonious Monk.

        Bandcamp’s usability is fucking garbage.
