Pressed on 180 gram audiophile vinyl.
When driving a band with the upright, or double bass, Charles Minguslooked -- and was -- gigantic, in more ways than one. He had hugecreative appetites (as well as being hot tempered), creating his owncombination of hard bop, blues, and avant-garde jazz. There was no onemore multi-faceted than Mingus between the 1950s and 1970s and of hismany albums, Mingus Ah Um (1959) is considered to be a jazzclassic. When Columbia first issued this album, 6 of the 9 tracks wereshortened drastically to fit them on the LP. Later reissues (on CD) haveincluded the tracks in their original full length, but this edition ofthe album had not been released on vinyl yet. We are excited to releasethe album 50 years after its original conception, as it was intended bythe Angry Man of Jazz himself.
