Charles Mingus - Mingus, Mingus, Mingus, Mingus, Mingus

Been a bit busy receiving birthday beatings, blowing out candles, and eating cake to post over the past couple of days.

This was the first of the birthday haul. I hadn’t realised until I started playing it that it’s Mingus re-recording some of his biggest tunes, often giving them different names. It shouldn’t work, but it does. This is largely due to the amazing band he had at this time.

Also – best album name ever.
