Blue Monk : Melody (4 versions)

Here's the melody of Blue Monk (Thelonious Monk). Wikipedia link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_compositions_by_Thelonious_Monk#Blue_Monk
First recording (1954) → https://youtu.be/WZcTZycaBdg
== Specific details / common mistakes ==
👉 A typical "Monk" note is the E played at bars 3, 7 and 10 (but F or Bb also work)
👉 The melody of this tune is often played differently by Thelonious Monk
👉 The chords you should play on the head as written on the screen
👉 The backing track I used is a standard Bb blues backing track, without the chords played at the exact right moments (sorry about that)
