Frankn Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 Hi everybody, just found the site. I have a copy of Monk's Music, Thelonious Monk, which is missing the last track on side 2, "Crepescule with Nellie". It is an orpheum issued riverside. Is this their commom pressing? Any info? Thanks, Frank Quote
brownie Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 Welcome aboard! The omission is not really unusual. Orpheum reissues of the Riverside albums were to be avoided. By the way, it is crepuscule not crepescule. Crepuscule is a french word variation on twilight. The tune was also erroneously titled 'Crepescule' on the original Riverside LP. Quote

BillF Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 I remain in crepuscular ignorance! Quote
Free For All Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 Then of course there's the Kenny G version of this tune: "Crap Is Cool With Kenny". Quote
