The Definitive Thelonious Monk on Prestige and Riverside covers a broad span of the '50s, beginning with trio sessions in New York featuring bassist Gary Mapp and drummer Art Blakey in October 1952 and stretching to sextet dates in San Francisco with trumpeter Joe Gordon, tenor saxophonists Harold Land and Charlie Rouse, bassist John Ore and drummer Billy Higgins in April 1960.
"This is some of the most amazing Thelonious Monk on record," says Nick Phillips, Concord Music Group's Vice President of Jazz and Catalog A&R and the producer of the Definitive series. "Whether he's playing a standard or one of his own compositions, he sounds uniquely like Thelonious Monk and nobody else. All of the tunes in this collection that Monk wrote have become jazz standards. Conversely, he plays standard tunes like `Caravan' and `Tea for Two' with such distinctive genius that you'd swear he had written them himself."
But Monk was no overnight sensation. He made "a long, slow climb from underground to mainstream adulation, and the ten-year period represented by this collection captures that ascent," says veteran music journalist Ashley Kahn in his liner notes. "The one constant -- creatively, promotionally, and economically -- was his recordings. First for Prestige Records from 1952 to '54, then for the Riverside label from '55 to '61, Monk was afforded the chance to create new music and work with a number of significant jazz peers in a number of contexts -- from solo piano, to trios, to quartets, even a big band . . . Most importantly, what Monk composed and recorded during the '50s amount to the definitive versions of some of the most enduring, joyous melodies in modern jazz."
The Definitive Thelonious Monk on Prestige and Riverside contains previously released tracks taken from the pianist's and composer's stint with the labels from 1952 to 1960. The 21 tracks, aimed at the casual listener, include the Monk penned classics " 'Round Midnight," "Straight, No Chaser," "Ruby, My Dear," "Bemsha Swing," and "Well, You Needn't." Appearing on these various dates are an extraordinary roster of musicians including Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Coleman Hawkins, Sonny Rollins and Charlie Rouse. Although it's far from a perfect retrospective of his career, this set would make a fine companion to The Essential Thelonious Monk spotlighting the years 1947-1952 on Blue Note and The Essential Thelonious Monk on Columbia 1962-1968. Keep in mind that all the original albums remain in print as well. ~ Al Campbell, Rovi |
