A Quasi-Centennial Mingus Festivus - The Charles Mingus Songbook, Part 2 [Mondo Jazz 153-2]

We continue our focus on the compositions of Charles Mingus, on the eve of what would have been his 99th birthday. Today's jazz would sound very different if Mingus had not been around and for this show we're focusing on some of the best renditions of some of his most beautiful compositions.

The playlist features Quincy Jones; Gavino Murgia; Andy Summers; RZA; Jyoti; Soil & Pimp Sessions; Ravi Coltrane; Bobby Previte, Hal Willner; Stephanie Nilles; Ron Miles; Mark Murphy; Honi Gordon; and Domino Quartet.

Detailed playlist at https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/13065964/Mondo-Jazz (from Quincy Jones onwards).

Happy listening!
