The legendary Thelonious Monk’s appearance at the legendary Newport festival in 1963 when the so-called ‘High Priest of Bop’ brought one of his greatest quartets featuring master Charlie Rouse on tenor sax, Butch Warren on bass, and Frankie Dunlop on drums. This is a great performance based on five of Monk’s classic compositions: ‘Criss Cross’, ‘Light Blue’, ‘Epistrophy’, ‘Nutty’,and ‘Blue Monk’. This is pure Monk’s essence, don’t miss it.
