he Thelonious Monk Quartet: The Complete Columbia Studio Albums
brings together the most popular of Monk's recordings of the period,
including Monk's Dream (1962), Criss Cross (1962), It's Monk's Time
(1964), Monk (1964), Straight, No Chaser (1966) and Underground (1967);
albums that found the influential and iconoclastic pianist and composer
collaborating with one of the most sympathetic interpreters of his
lyrical and thorny music, the tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouse.
While Monk had been acknowledged by fellow musicians as one of the
linchpins of modern jazz, it wasn't until he signed with Columbia
Records that he achieved considerable popular recognition. His albums
sold widely, his quartet became a considerable live attraction and,
amazingly enough, he found himself on the cover of Time Magazine in
early 1964.
This comprehensive six CD set also boasts a beautifully designed
booklet filled with previously unseen photos capturing Monk and his
musicians at the historic recording sessions. |
