Tracks list

Hot on the heels of Impulse’s recently unearthed Coltrane number one hit
album comes another beauty from Jazz’s ‘Holy Trinity’. This
is a previously unreleased, precious lost treasure from Monk’s most
critically acclaimed line-up; Charlie Rouse on saxophone, John Ore on double
bass, and Frankie Dunlop on drums. The music was recorded live in Copenhagen in
1963 at the peak of Monk’s career. A year later he was to feature on the
cover of TIME magazine, one of only for 4 Jazz artists ever to do so. 

The performance, a mixture of Monk originals and interpretations of standards,
showcases Monk at his prime: full of avant-garde flair and wit, but always with
a swinging feel that explains his title as the High Priest of Bebop. 

The original tapes, saved from a skip and blessed with the approval of the Monk
estate, have been faithfully restored, mastered and cut using Gearboxs legendary
all-analogue process.
