Eclectic Thelonious Monk covers in styles from punk to funk to straight jazz. When they run out of obvious, campy ideas, they turn to slow but straightforward jazz with a few "avant" noises in the background or sudden outbursts of noise; these are less successful. Fun overall. #1, 11 and 12 broach Naked City territory. 1*- Punk blasts 2*- Oozy funk! 3*- Alternates between cock rock and straight jazz 4- Slow psychedelic feel with thick guitar solo 5- Quiet, mysterious "Misterioso" 6- New Orleans horns, sort of. Slow and repetitious 7- Straight, with loud swinging ending 8- Sparse, with thunderous outbursts 9- Calm start, gets chaotic and squiggly with guitar 10- Slow, horn-led 11*- Danceable new wave - crazy and thumping 12*- Speed-metal jazz | ||
