Order Howling Monk Gourmet Coffee!

Once Upon a Time in Inglewood California

Once Upon a Time is mostly about the almost famous, but forever closed Howling Monk JazzCoffeeBar in Inglewood California.

Those were the days my friend but now's the time!

Today Howling Monk is trying to be the best site on the worldwide web. Why not? It starts with curiosity and that leads to information and entertainment. However, more than anything, its about you visiting and hanging out like this site is your friendly neighborhood coffeehouse in cyberspace. The doors are open to all. Many points-of-view are expressed, but never with an intent to do harm. Indeed, you are the one who matters most.

Who am I?

I'm Ken  Moore, the owner of Howling Monk. Yes, Howling Monk JazzCoffeeBar is closed now. And "The Last Howling Monk Concert" featuring the Bobby West TrioYet was held on February, 25, 2012 at Eso Won Bookstore. Yes, I have many fond memories of the days  and all of the people. Time does indeed move on and most of my time is now spent trying to sell Howling Monk Coffee and doing research the site.

The name "Howling Monk" is a tribute to legendary bluesman Howling Wolf, to jazz genius, Thelonious Monk and to all people who use their time, energy, talent; indeed whatever they have, for good. Howling Monk personifies the mission to promote what Duke Ellington called a "jazz state of mind." That means seeking inspiration in ones creative expressions with the goal of bettering the community-at-large.

With your help; with your frequent visits, and with your purchases of Howling Monk Coffee along with our other products and services, the Howling Monk mission can be fulfilled. 

With this, the first posting of the year, updates will now be monthly. The content will remain eccentric because that keeps things lively. So please dig in today and come back tomorrow for some more.
