Description
“The musical equivalent of the discovery of a new Mount Everest." (Newsweek) This never-before heard jazz classic, “Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall” (1957), released in 2005, documents one of the most historically important working bands in all of Jazz history, a band that was both short-lived and, until now, thought to be frustratingly under-recorded. The concert, which took place at the famed New York hall on November 29, 1957, was preserved on newly-discovered tapes made by Voice of America for a later radio broadcast that were located at the Library of Congress in Washington DC in 2005. Thelonious Monk has never sounded more energetic or exhuberant, as though he were primed for the concert of a lifetime. But Monk's strongest suit on this set is his "third hand," John Coltrane. The material, two 25-minute, five-tune sets in great fidelity and the quartet in unbelievable form, includes Monk classics like "Epistrophy," "Monk's Moods," and "Evidence," as well as a striking rendition of the standard "Sweet and Lovely." This is music that not only bears repeated listenings, but also demands them - the ultimate definition of a classic.
