Larry Appelbaum (April 12, 1957 – February 21, 2025) was an American audio engineer and jazz historian who was the Senior Music Reference Specialist in the Music Division of the Library of Congress, and hosted a Jazz show on WPFW for c. 40 years.[1][2]
Applebaum, in his role at the Library of Congress digitising recordings, discovered the lost tape of Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall. It was released in 2005.[3] In 2007 a similar discovery enabled Sonny Rollins to announce the release of his 1957 debut at the Carnegie Hall.[1][4]
In 2024, Appelbaum was awarded the Benny Golson Jazz Master Award by the Howard University Jazz Ensemble.[5]
Appelbaum died on February 21, 2025, at the age of 67.[6][2][7]
