Another hero of the Hammond organ starts his career brilliantly: His
first CD released on his own gives much room for speculations. Everybody
knows that some younger tough guys like DeFrancesco or Goldings are on
their way to follow the older generation of the famous jazz organ players.
And Tony Monaco, belonging to the very young generation, goes into the
organ scene with giant steps, musically seen.
This organ player lets you feel a deep musicality, he plays with hands, feet and
heart. Other than f.e. Joey DeFrancesco who plays technically nearly perfect,
Tony matches the groove nearly perfectly. He seems to have been made for
walking in the genuine steps of Jimmy Smith.
Sure, this organ player has to develop his own style, in order not to walk in the
shadow of the many others. The base is laid, go on further!
