Additional information
Personnel: Thelonious Monk (piano); Steve Lacy (soprano saxophone); Phil Woods (alto saxophone, clarinet); Charlie Rouse (tenor saxophone); Gene Allen (baritone saxophone, bass clarinet, clarinet); Nick Travis (trumpet); Thad Jones (cornet); Eddie Bert (trombone); Butch Warren (bass); Frank Dunlop (drums). Reissue producer: John Snyder. Recorded live at Lincoln Center, Philharmonic Hall, New York, New York on December 30, 1963. Includes liner notes by Mark Humphrey. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Now available on two CDs, and including over half an hour of additional music (material excised from the original 1964 release), this is a recording of the legendary pianist's December 30, 1963 concert at New York's Lincoln Center. The concert was something of a landmark, and commemorated Monk's transformation from a long-standing controversial figure into a position as an Old Master (Time magazine put his portrait on the cover in early 1964). Quite simply, jazz had caught up to where Monk had been for 20 years. In a world where John Coltrane was developing his sheets of sound technique and people such as Albert Ayler and Eric Dolphy were destroying long-held musical boundaries in the genre, Monk's idiosyncratic melodies and playing style, full of long pauses and near-atonal note clusters in the midst of otherwise standard bebop piano solos, simply didn't sound that weird anymore! As a result, this excellent and beautifully recorded concert functions as a long-deserved musical homecoming.
Reviews
Down Beat (11/94, p.64) - 5 Stars - Excellent - "...detailing the contextual contrasts created by the program's rotation of big-band and quartet performances....orchestrations were more cogent than those used at Monk's 1958 Town Hall concert..."

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

Book arrived safely packaged in perfect order. Item as described, new. Thank you Rarewaves Outlet. Fascinating book, great addition to my collection. Great price. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed with seller, so don't know what to rate with regards to communication (please dont take lack of feedback on this matter as a negative). Thanks again.

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
