O’s Notes: Most jazz aficionados are familiar with Thelonious Monk and his unique piano style centered on the off beats. Organist Greg Lewis is a disciple of Monk extending his groove to the B3. He gets help from Ron Jackson (g), Riley Mullins (t), Reggie Woods (sax) and Jeremy Bean Clemons (d). American Standard is Greg’s third album celebrating Monk and as the title suggests it features American classics. Lewis does a good job performing the Tin Pan Alley tunes in Monk tradition.
