Play Monk and Powell is an album by Paul Motian and the Electric Bebop Band released on the German Winter & Winter label in 1999 and featuring performances of tunes by Thelonious Monk and Bud Powell. The album is the group's fourth release following the 1992 album Paul Motian and the Electric Bebop Band, the 1995 album Reincarnation of a Love Bird and the 1996 release Flight of the Blue Jay.
The Allmusic review by Steve Loewy awarded the album 4½ stars stating "The arrangements are entirely respectful of the compositions, although liberties are taken with tempo and harmony. The results are more than satisfactory, if somewhat conservative, with the solos passed about generously. Motian again reveals his ability to kick and burn, as well as play sensitively, reaffirming his place among the greatest jazz drummers".
