Blue Note 1536 J.R. Monterose - J.R. Monterose Music Matters Sealed Limited Edition #504
The Definitive 45 rpm Blue Note Reissue Series. This is the reissues of Rudy Van Gelder’s Blue Note masters.
Release Date: Sep 2011
J.R. Monterose had what it took be one of the giants of the tenor-sax. His sound was inspired by Sonny Rollins and Coleman Hawkins, he played with consistent intensity, and he prospered musically during an association with Charles Mingus. While he did not become a major name, his Blue Note debut in 1956 shows that he was one of the greats. Joined by Horace Silver and Ira Sullivan, Monterose's playing is full of surprises, advanced ideas and his own approach to playing hard bop. There was no warming up period for Monterose for he was already in prime form, challenging his sidemen and expressing himself in his own voice. Although he was active into the 1980s this, his first album as a leader, is J.R. Monterose's finest recording and a brilliant set just waiting to be discovered.
