Thelonious Monk: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes (Paris Piano Solo, 1954)

I realise that I've never listenned to the original recording of the song, because to me THIS IS the original! I've just listenned to Gertrude Niesen's version, it's a very cute song… but I prefer Monk's version :)

Some of the fast licks are pretty hard to play!
