In the second part of our special two-part episode with T.S. Monk, we discuss what many consider to be his father's great quartet, with saxophonist Charlie Rouse, bassist John Ore and drummer Frankie Dunlop; Monk’s role as mentor; and why his High Priest of Bebop moniker deserves expansion.

It's a family affair on the latest episode of Milestones as drummer-bandleader, recording artist and educator T.S. Monk joins for a special two-part episode.
