Thelonious Monk & John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall, "Crepuscule with Nellie", New York, 1957
Thelonious Monk quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall, "Crepuscule with Nellie", New York, 1957 It was recorded on 29 november 1957 at "Thanksgiving Jazz", a benefit concert produced by Kenneth Lee Karpe for the Morningside Community Center in Harlem. The recording, by Voice of America, documents two sets by the Monk quartet with Coltrane that night – an early set (tracks 1-5) and a late set (tracks 6-9), which the recording does not fully document. The tape was stored at the Library of Congress where it sat untouched, until 2005 when it was discovered by recording lab supervisor Larry Appelbaum. The recording was then restored by producer Michael Cuscuna and T.S. Monk (Thelonious Monk's son).
