Tony Monaco Trio

Tony Monaco - Hammond B3 organ, Reggie Jackson – drums, Derek Dicenzo – guitar

"Tony Monaco, whose organ playing is similar to that of Jimmy Smith in the late '50s, . . . has an enthusiastic and spirited style, one that is a constant joy to hear. “Monaco explodes in a climactic style . . . Exuberance, skillful dynamics and galvanic solo construction are this organ trio’s assets . . . Monacco has plenty of soul to call his own. . . a real master of the B3.” – Jazz Times  “. . . in the hands of Jimmy Smith the organ could sing. Monaco proves that he too is the sort of high caliber player who can coax such a response.”  --Downbeat
