A newly unearthed concert from the late jazz titan Thelonious Monk premieres on Palo Alto.  Recorded October 27, 1968 at that California city's high school, the set features both originals and standards in the inimitable Monk style. The album will be released on CD and LP.  The LP boasts a deluxe presentation with a gatefold sleeve, printed inners, a booklet with liner notes by Monk historian Robin D. G. Kelley plus reproductions of the original concert poster and program. For fans of color vinyl, the subscription program Vinyl Me Please offers an exclusive variant on transparent orange swirl vinyl.  Legacy Recordings is handling the digital release.
