Thelonious Alone in San Francisco is jazz pianist Thelonious Monk's third solo album, recorded in 1959.[6][7] (Piano Solo, aka Solo 1954, recorded in Paris,[8] and Thelonious Himself (1957), were Monk's previous forays into this form.)
It was recorded in Fugazi Hall, San Francisco, California, on October 21 and 22, 1959, but without an audience present.
"Bluehawk" and "Round Lights" were improvised blues which appeared only in these recorded versions. The other Monk compositions had appeared in prior recordings.
