What we have here are some classic Mingus compositions filled-outand arranged for large (11 pieces) jazz ensemble, anotherbrilliant version of Ellington's "Mood Indigo," and a Minguspiano solo version of Eubie Blake's "Memories of You."Many of the pieces are retitled here, but Mingus fans willimmediately recognize "Good-Bye, Porkpie Hat" and "Haiitian FightSong" without being cued. All arrangements are by Mingus himself, who also plays bass on 7 of the 9 takes here. This isprobably NOT a good introduction to Mingus, but those who arefamiliar with his work will be grateful for these versions oftunes in a more "full-dimensional" approach. The version of"Haiitian Fight Song" in particular is a "killer." It's justrock-'em, sock-'em, no-holds-barred Mingus! The powerful, up-tempo tunes emerge stronger, the softer, slower ones moredelicate from these arrangements. For Mingus fans only, but notto be missed if you are one!
