Green Chimneys is Andy Summers' tribute to the music of jazz legend Thelonius Monk. It features The Police guitarist recorded in California with a host of the best players in the world. ''I was sixteen when I first heard Monk's music. It knocked me out, got under my skin. It was jazz, but it was something else, African-magical-cubist-primitive-Monk's world." States Andy in his sleeve notes. "I have always loved Monk and his music, he created his own universe, one that has not only sustained me, but has been a constant source of inspiration and delight. Thank you, Thelonius''. Rare. 2007.
