Charles Mingus: Mingus Ah Um The Stereo & Mono Versions LTD versie op vinyl 2LP in limited editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Europa bij uitgeverij Green Corner op 20. april 2018.

Product Information The Penguin Guide to Jazz called the Mingus Ah Um "an extended tribute to the ancestors" and awarded it one of its rare crowns. In fact, it is one of Mingus's most distinctive albums, spawning a number of songs that have become standards. "Better Git It in Your Soul" is inspired by the gospel singing and preaching Mingus might have heard as a child growing up in Watts, Los Angeles, California, while "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" is a reference (via his favorite headdress) to saxophonist Lester Young (who died shortly before the album was recorded). "Boogie Stop Shuffle" is self-explanatory: a twelve-bar blues with four themes and a boogie bass accompaniment that goes from stop time to shuffle and back again. "Self-Portrait in Three Colors" was intended for the soundtrack of John Cassavetes' film Shadows, but for budgetary reasons was never used. "Open Letter to Duke" is a tribute to Duke Ellington, and "Jelly Roll" refers to jazz pioneer and pianist Jelly Roll Morton. According to Mingus himself, "Bird Calls" was not a reference to Charlie Parker: "It wasn't meant to sound like Charlie Parker. It was supposed to sound like birds - the first part." "Fables of Faubus" is named after Orval E. Faubus (1910-1994), the Arkansas governor who infamously opposed the integration of schools in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 1957, defying a U.S. Supreme Court ruling (and forcing President Eisenhower to send in the National Guard). It is sometimes claimed that Columbia refused to allow the inclusion of lyrics on this album, although it is more likely that the song was originally composed as an instrumental and the lyrics were added later (they can be heard on the 1960 LP Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus). The extensive original liner notes for Mingus Ah Um were written by Diane Dorr-Dorynek, who was not only Mingus' publicist and agent at the time, but also his mistress.

Album valt binnen het genre Jazz, Bop, Hard Bop en Post Bop. 180g Remastered Limited Edition Vinyl.
