Charles Mingus – Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Recorded in 1963, this session captured Mingus at the height of his powers as a bandleader and composer, revisiting and reshaping material from across his career rather than chasing anything new. The renamed titles were partly a publishing maneuver, but the performances themselves are anything but contractual obligation, they burn with the controlled chaos and deep swing that made Mingus one of the most commanding presences in post-bop jazz.
One of the quintessential Charles Mingus recordings regardless of label, Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus finds a mini-big-band playing some of Mingus' best-known compositions - albeit with new titles! Features Mingus favorites Eric Dolphy, Booker Ervin and Jaki Byard among its all-star cast. Verve's Acoustic Sounds Series features transfers from analog tapes and remastered 180-gram vinyl in deluxe gatefold packaging.
