Jazz / Avant-Garde; Post-Bop
Taken from three classic LPs in one set. "Jazzical Moods" & "The Jazz Experiments Of Charles Mingus" from 1954, and "The Mingus Three" from 1957. Features 1950s Jazz legends Thad Jones, John LaPorta, Hampton Hawes and Miles Davis producer Teo Macero. Rare transitional material from one of Jazz' greatest composers. Material originally released on obscure but legendary Period and Jubilee labels. Great companion piece to The Complete Columbia Recordings and Complete Atlantic Recordings boxed sets. Sure to become an essential purchase for serious Mainstream Jazz collectors.
