Description: Classic Mood Experience The best masterpieces ever recorded in the music history. Join our Youtube: goo.gl/8AOGaN Thelonious Monk - Ruby, My Dear [1945] A 32-bar ballad in AABA-form that Monk composed around 1945, and first titled "Manhattan Moods". The tune was later retitled "Ruby, My Dear" after Rubie Richardson, Monk's first love and his older sister Marion's best friend. It was however not for nostalgic reasons, but because the first phrase of the tune fit with the new title. It was first recorded on October 24, 1947, for the Genius of Modern Music sessions. The tune later appears on Monk's Music, Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane, Thelonious Alone in San Francisco, and on Solo Monk. Lyrics were written by Sally Swisher and the song was recorded in 1988 by Carmen McRae as part of her studio album Carmen Sings Monk. For copyright reasons, the song was renamed "Dear Ruby".
