      How long now before someone comes on and says, "strange how he hardly influenced anyone who came after"?

            Nat Hentoff has something to say on this which is a deserved accusation aimed at Wynton M for cutting Mingus at the Lincoln Centre

                I missed that Bracknell Hoarded Dreams. Graham Collier did me a tape of it.

                Thanks Graham - wherever you are!

                  I enjoy jazz but my experience of it is limited. I only took note of Mingus through his collaboration with Joni Mitchell including their T S Eliot 4 Quartets project which never materialised due to his early death. Unlike some, I liked her Mingus album very much. I only have one of his albums - The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady - quite recently acquired. It is a compelling piece of work.

                    itis indeed gurnemanz

                    you might consider these:



                    there are many other live recordings and studio albums but these are three of his finest

                    this is one of his finest smaller ensembles

                        Ah Um one of my favourite albums...I've long thought that if Mahler had written "Self Portrait in Three Colors" it would be much better known
                        all words are trains for moving past what really has no name
