Thelonious Monk
After the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1968, racial tensions across the country rose. Palo Alto, a largely white college town in California, was not immune to the events of the day. Danny Scher, a rising junior at Palo Alto High School, had a dream to bring Thelonious Monk to Palo Alto to perform and help bring about racial unity in his community as well as raise funds for his school's International Committee.
Palo Alto: The Custodian's Mix is a journey back in time to Palo Alto High School's sold-out auditorium on October 27, 1968, where Thelonious Monk and his quartet delivered an extraordinary performance. This limited-edition LP presents this historic concert exactly as it was recorded by a still-unknown high school custodian ... hear it as if you were there on the historic day - this is the ultimate account of the concert as it happened. The identity of the recording engineer may remain a mystery, but the power of both Monk's music and the original recording are self-evident.
