Steve Lacy, Don Cherryy - Evidence (Remastered) (1962) [Hi-Res]

Soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy's 1961 Prestige album Evidence continues his early exploration of Thelonious Monk's music. Lacy, who had worked extensively with Monk, applied his unique soprano saxophone approach to the pianist's intricate compositions. The recording features an impressive lineup including trumpeter Don Cherry, then a member of the Ornette Coleman quartet, drummer Billy Higgins (who played with both Coleman and Monk), and bassist Carl Brown. Cherry showcased his versatility, adapting well to the Monk-Lacy setting. The album's six tracks comprise four Monk compositions and two lesser-known Duke Ellington numbers, co-written with Billy Strayhorn: "The Mystery Song" and "Something to Live For."
