As far as I'm aware, when you burn an audio CD (as opposed to just burning a data CD or DVD), it shouldn't matter what the original file format was.

I can’t play them on my CD player as FLAC files on a data CD. But my CD player is quite old.

Been listening to these for the last week. Wow, absolutely fantastic. That is all.

Flac is losless compressed version of the wav files so way better than mp3...but nice thing w/bandcamp is no matter what with price of admission you can d/l ALL of these ..wav, flac mp3 AAC and so on get all them and use as you see fit all for same price, etc.

The more I listen to this the more I like it. The originality of the interpretation is really something on some of the tracks. Pannonica is another really interesting one.

Bandcamp is a much better deal for independent artists than iTunes, Amazon etc.

Thelonious Monk is one my favorite jazz players/composers ever!! I just heard the Fretboard Journal podcast with Miles and sampled the tracks on Bandcamp! Wow! What a labor of love!

Thought I would give this a discussion a boost back up as Okazaki has just released the Work recordings as a six CD set, for those who prefer a physical purchase.
Available from the Bandcamp page: Work (Complete, Volumes 1-6) | Miles Okazaki
(You'll see on that page a discount code for those who had already purchased the set as a download - honours system)

I see he's done a couple of solo Monk repertoire shows in Europe last week. This week he's performing Monk solo in the States in teh Cambridge/Boston area on Saturday 18 May: mandorla music series

Hi guitar heads,
Miles Okazaki here. Some people here and elsewhere have asked me about the arrangements for my Monk recordings (Work (Complete, Volumes 1-6) | Miles Okazaki)
The thing is, I never wrote anything down. But now I'm preparing for some concerts where I'll play all 70 tunes from memory, and I'm going back through the tunes to figure out what I did. I'm doing this in a video diary on patreon. If you'd like to check it out, it's here and it's just five bucks. Work, with Miles Okazaki | Practicing the music of Thelonious Monk on guitar | Patreon. There are five tunes up so far with my (very informal) instructional videos.
Best,
MO
