Criss-Cross 180gr LP

Thelonious Monk (p); Charlie Rouse (ts); John Ore (b); Frankie Dunlop (dr)

'Criss-Cross' - Thelonious Monk's second album for
Columbia Records ? features some of the finest
work that Monk ever did in the studio with his
'60s trio and quartet. Whether revisiting pop
standards or reinventing Monk's own classic
compositions, Monk and Charlie Rouse (tenor sax),
John Ore (bass), and Frankie Dunlop (drums)
exchange powerful musical ideas, as well as
provide potent solos throughout the disc.
Fittingly, 'Hackensack' - a frenetic original
composition - opens the disc by demonstrating the
bandleader's strength in a quartet environment.
The solid rhythmic support of the trio unfetters
Monk into unleashing endless cascades of
percussive inflections and intoxicating chord
progressions. The title cut also reflects the
ability of the four musicians to maintain melodic
intricacies that are at times so exigent it seems
cruel that Monk would have expected a musician of
any caliber to pull them off. 'Tea for Two'
showcases Monk's appreciation for the great stride
or 'walking' piano style of James P. Johnson and
Willie 'The Lion' Smith. The arrangement here is
lighter, and features a trio (minus Rouse) to
accent rather than banter with Monk's splashes of
magnificence throughout. Likewise, Monk's solo on
'Don't Blame Me' is excellent. The extended runs
up and down the keyboard can't help but reiterate
the tremendous debt of gratitude owed to the
original stride pianists of the early 20th
century. This is prime Monk for any degree of
listener.
