Duet between the two artists that Helado Negro said is, "about all the ways we feel and the complicated things we do to try to understand this feeling. ‘Spaceship shaped words fly through your world unheard’ is a lyric that describes how alien the feeling can be and how hard we make it to be known."

Credit NPR: The summer of 1968 looked like the summer of 2020. Americans were in the streets protesting racism, among other things. And a high school student in Palo Alto, Calif., got in on the action by enlisting the help of a jazz legend. Danny Scher came up with the idea to book Thelonious Monk to play his school's auditorium and now, a professional recording of this concert will be released publicly for the first time on July 31. The album is called Palo Alto.
The fact that the concert was recorded at all is incredible. The day before the event, the student was approached by a school janitor, who said: 'If you let me record the concert, I'll get the piano tuned.'
The identity of the janitor remains unknown, but after the show, he handed the tape over to Scher, who has held onto it for over 50 years.
