Reviews
- “Manufactured for Scorpio Records by Sony Music Entertainment”. Scorpio only distributed, so it’s really not a terrible pressing.
Decent reissue. Almost TOO loud, which was surprising. The music has its slack moments but Nelson's exuberant arrangements of Monk classics for jazz orchestra are enough to keep you listening. While Monk himself feels maybe a little absent or distant overall, he checks in for a few chunky solos.
referencing Monk's Blues (LP, Album, Reissue) 20AP 1432
Forget what the pretentious critics say – this is a very pleasant playful rhythmic warm & lush (late 60’s chic) big band recording conducted by the brilliant Oliver Nelson (see The Blues and the Abstract Truth) & produced by the aural master Teo Macero with Monk throwing his patented quirky odd runs into the mix.
A perverse pleasure.
