Happy 102nd birthday, Charles Mingus. I only had the pleasure of recording with Mr. Mingus once.
In his memory, I am listening to our collaboration on his album "Three or Four Shades of Blues."

In 1973 @atlanticrecords began its second period of recording with @Mingus, which resulted in seven studio albums.
The story of a new phase in Mingus’ music – his last phase – begins with the recordings in this boxed set.
Featuring all of his 1970s output for Atlantic Records, all configurations of the album include previously unreleased outtakes of “Big Alice,” “The Call” and “Music For Todo Modo.”
There is also an extra set of takes of “Big Alice” and “The Call” on an Outtakes disc exclusive to the vinyl format. AVAILABLE JUNE 23, 2023. PRE-ORDER: Rhino.lnk.to/ChangesComplete

For 20+ years we at TNYCJR have been trying to solve one of the biggest issues that faces any NYC jazz fan - that of being in two places/concerts at the same time! @mingusbigband has done just that - while on tour in Europe they continue Wednesday #MidnightTheatre residency! – at Manhattan, NY

#EricDolphy's tragic death—the result of racial stereotyping leading physicians in Berlin to misdiagnose his diabetic coma as a drug overdose—came just before #CharlesMingus's son was born.
In his memory, Mingus named his son "Eric Dolphy Mingus." #KenCenNextPBS
