A lot of Saxaphone players came through Monk`s school. Trane, Johnny Griffin, Sonny Rollins, Coleman Hawkins. But Hawkins was the leader of that band, and there were many others. BUT!!!!...As you stated the great and underrated Charlie Rouse ..played Monk the way Monk would play if he put the horn in his own mouth. Monk came out of Rouse like the shit out our ass.

Right? He plays the notes between the notes. (Oh, heh, Dan JV said that already... I second the motion). Man, at 06:50 ish Monk just stops and poor Mr. Gales is just hanging on by a couple of finger tips (actually, quite literally) and he reels it back in (a bad pun if you think reel-to-reel recording, but I'm reaching). Then Mr. Gales goes into that gorgeous, minimal drum solo with brushes for uhhh how many bars was that? and everyone just pops back in on beat as if nothing but a couple of bars went by.

Here comes Charlie Rouse...Monk had to get up and dance when he played. Nobody else could get away with this. Monk style is so deviant it cry's out JAZZ, not pretty yet beautiful, not smooth but still stylish. And those words can't sum up the appeal of his music, he just touches a place like no other. Maybe i'm crazy as he was, I have listen to his playing at least twice a year. :-D

Monk danced to conduct the orchestra on how the beat should be going and to allow them to stretch out without his piano in the way. Actually in the late 19th and early 20th century it was common for African American bands to have a dancing conductor some who danced through every selection with the same idea

Monk bailaba cuando el grupo estaba tocando bien de verdad, con el swing y en el sentido en el que el consideraba buen jazz. Este cuarteto ,en mi opinion ,fué el que mejor sonó de todos los que tuvo monk ( de los que se tienen documentos grabados.) . El jazz de Monk no va de virtuosismo, va de otras cosas menos obvias .. va de sorprender al oido no de deslumbrarlo, fijate la cara de Monk en el min 4: 12 cuando charlie rouse se inventa eso sobre las armonias de Lulu's Back In Town , lo deja pensando.....
