AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow
Birds & Monks features five tenors: Johnny Griffin, Harold Land, Joe Farrell, John Klemmer, and Joe Henderson -- and altoist Art Pepper -- playing one song apiece (five tunes by Charlie Parker along with Thelonious Monk's "'Round Midnight"). Pianist Stanley Cowell provides accompaniment (but sits out on the Henderson cut); either Cecil McBee or John Heard are on bass, and Roy Haynes plays the skins. Each of the saxophonists plays quite well, with John Klemmer's version of "'Round Midnight" being the only ballad. This release is easily recommended for bop fanatics.
