Short intro
Straight No Chaser - Eddie Gomez, Jimmy Knepper, Dannie Richmond, Bennie Wallace. Лента с персональными рекомендациями и музыкальными новинками, радио, подборки на любой вкус, удобное управление своей коллекцией. Wallace's eccentric interval jumps and very expressive sound along with his advanced harmonic knowledge made him a natural to explore Monk's music and he pours plenty of passion into these improvisations. In addition to seven of Monk's compositions, Wallace contributes his own Prelude the CD reissue adds a second version of 'Round Midnight to the original program. This colorful and chancetaking session can act as an introduction to both Bennie Wallace and Monk's music. 1981: Bennie Wallace Plays Monk Enja with Jimmy Knepper, Eddie Gomez, Dannie Richmond. 1982: The Bennie Wallace Trio and Chick Corea: Mystic Bridge Enja with Eddie Gomez and Dannie Richmond. 1982: Big Jim's Tango Enja with Dave Holland, Elvin Jones. 1998: Bennie Wallace Beyond the Bluebird Sledgehammer Blues with Tommy Flanagan, Eddie Gomez, Alvin Queen. 1999: Someone to Watch over Me Enja with Mulgrew Miller, Peter Washington, Yoron Israel. 2002: In Berlin with George Cables, Peter Washington, Herlin Riley.

A rather fine record Bennie Wallace is about the last person you would think of to create a tribute to Monk album but this is very successful. Wallace is normally a bit of a good time player with a big hoarse tone and a rumbustious style. Live he is an exciting performer, but not always one of the world's deep thinkers. All of which goes to show just how wrong you can be. Bennie Wallace Dannie Richmond Eddie Gomez Jimmy Knepper. or open in our Desktop app. Other Albums by Bennie Wallace.
