- The Giants of Jazz are: Art Blakey, Thelonious Monk, Kai Winding, Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Stitt, with Al McKibbon on bass gave a live performance on the Newport Jazz Festival October 31, 1971 in De Doelen Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
This is the fifth piece 'Tour De Force'
Thelonious Sphere Monk (October 10, 1917- February 17, 1982) was an American jazz pianist and composer. He had a unique improvisational style and made numerous contributions to the standard jazz repertoire, including "'Round Midnight", "Blue Monk", "Straight, No Chaser", "Ruby, My Dear", "In Walked Bud", and "Well, You Needn't". Monk is the second-most-recorded jazz composer after Duke Ellington.
Monk's compositions and improvisations feature dissonances and angular melodic twists and are consistent with his unorthodox approach to the piano, which combined a highly percussive attack with abrupt, dramatic use of switched key releases, silences, and hesitations.
Monk was renowned for a distinct look which included suits, hats, and sunglasses. He was also noted for an idiosyncratic habit during performances: while other musicians continued playing, Monk would stop, stand up, and dance for a few moments before returning to the piano.
Monk is one of five jazz musicians to have been featured on the cover of Time magazine (the others being Louis Armstrong, Dave Brubeck, Duke Ellington and Wynton Marsalis).

My only regret is that I never go to see the JM live under the direction of Art Blakely. An incredible training ground for Wynton Marsalis, Horace Silver, etc. Thank God they left us valuable recordings that are audio and visual. What a blessing for us all whom love and appreciate this thing called jazz.
Theolinous monk is the coolest name to ever live
Sure miss these cats being on the planet. 1 chorus each. Gold!

Incredible this title called "Tour de Force" from the second concert that night !!! And this time there is a short intro (which wasnot on the TV broadcast I have from Dutch TV on VHS), where you can see, that Blakey was not that nice guy we wanted to see. Thanks a lot, still looking for more of this execellent night in Rotterdam in 1971 - I LOVE your site !!!!
Graag gedaan! Groet uit Hilversum
I saw Blakely in San Francisco and Dizzy at Kimball's East in Emeryville great sets.

Great performance but this is not "Out of Nowhere", this is a Dizzy tune called "Tour de Force".
Thanks!
We have changed it, thank you
