Steve Lacy - Plays Thelonious Monk Reflections VINYL LP JD125
The legendary reeds-man Steve Lacy takes on the brilliant compositions of Thelonious Monk. Originally released in 1959, Reflections is a glorious quartet session with Lacy on soprano sax, accompanied by the great Mal Waldron on piano, as worthy a pianist to take on the tunes of Monk as one could imagine, along with Buell Neidlinger on bass, and the amazing Elvin Jones on the trap kit. Though it's only Lacy's second recording as a leader, his maturity and range are well on display here as he re-imagines 7 of Monk's beautiful tunes as his own.
