Mulligan Meets Monk Thelonious Monk SKU: BIRD014 Barcode: 5060174955860 17.00 £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Birdland Released Date: 18th November 2013 Buying Format: 1LP Includes CD Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Re mastered in London 2013, Mulligan Meets Monk documents the 1957 meeting of two sharp musical minds. Though the pairing may seem unlikely, baritone saxophonist Gerry Mulligan — whose cool, West Coast style blends dexterity with laid-back grace — and Thelonious Monk — whose radical, angular piano playing and thoroughly modern compositions are blueprints for the possibilities of bop — sound remarkable together. In fact, it is the contrast between the players’ styles that lends this set its balance and appeal. The program, which includes four compositions by Monk and one by Mulligan, is unassailable. Mulligan acquits himself admirably on the Monk classics “‘Round Midnight,” “Rhythm-a-ning,” and “Straight, No Chaser,” unfurling his smooth tone over their zigzagging melodies and ambitious scalar architecture. Mulligan’s “Decidedly,” a bright bop workout, fits easily alongside Monk’s tunes, especially with the help of Monk’s off-kilter, accented comping. Bassist Wilbur Ware and drummer Shadow Wilson lend solid support to the spirited playing of the two leaders, making this top-notch session — with its great tunes, chemistry, and soloing — a true classic. Produced by Orrin Keepnews. Recorded in NYC August 12th -13th 1957 Thelonious Monk – Piano Gerry Mulligan – Baritone Saxophone Wilbur Ware – Double Bass Shadow Wilson – Drums (Originally issued on Riverside Records RLP1106)
