Thelonous Monk: Palo Alto

Posted by suretyguy (A) on June 21, 2020 at 06:00:22

My wife just pointed out an NPR story about a new (?) release to come on July 31 of a concert Monk performed back in 1968 at the behest of a high school student in Palo Alto, CA. It is said to have been "professionally" recorded, so on the basis that any previously unreleased material by him is of value, I just preordered it on vinyl. Keeping my fingers crossed on sound quality.

You don't hear the term "audiophile janitor" enough - bgunn 08:25:05 06/22/20 (2)

It would be great to track down the janitor's name. Give credit where credit is due. (nt) - semuta 12:15:47 06/22/20 (1)
