Duo is an album by pianist Cedar Walton and bassist David Williams which was recorded in Italy 1990 and originally released on the Italian Red label.[ 1] The album was first released as Off Minor due to a mistake incorrectly identifying the track "I Mean You" as another Thelonious Monk tune and as a result, the title and jacket were changed but the recorded contents remained the same.[ 2]
