"Monaco’s trio smokes ...exuberance, skillful dynamics and galvanic solo construction are this organ trio’s assets...Monaco has plenty of soul to call his own." -JAZZ TIMES "Monaco’s CD boils with the energy of a live show…" -DOWN BEAT "In the organ world, Tony Monaco has become an unanticipated new star…features plenty of Monaco’s fearsome technique." -JAZZIZ "Chitlin’ circuit grits-and-gravy organ/guitar/drum trio jazz at its finest...truly inspirational [and] a must-have for jazz organ fans." -KEYBOARD MAGAZINE The incredible Tony Monaco is back with one of the best jazz recordings in a long time! Flanked by guitarist Bruce Forman (known for his work on the soundtrack of Clint Eastwood’s award-winning Million Dollar Baby) and drummer Adam Nussbaum (who has toured/played with most jazz greats), Monaco delivers an incredible recording with a remarkable chemistry! Monaco is sure to raise eyebrows with his sixth recording – and his first on the new keyboard-driven Summit imprint Chicken Coup Records. Up till the time of the legendary Jimmy Smith, the organ had the reputation of being a church instrument. Many great keyboardists were "birthed" after hearing Smith’s music, and now Chicken Coup Records has been "birthed" from that same inspiration!
