Charles Mingus – The Jazz Experiments of Charles Mingus (180g Vinyl LP)

$55.00

The Jazz Experiments Of Charles Mingus is a fairly obscure collaboration between Mingus and John LaPorta that contains both modern classical and cool jazz compositions plus Mingus’ piano debut. This six-piece set is highlighted by fresh arrangements of “What Is This Thing Called Love” and “Stormy Weather.” Recorded in 1954 for Period Records, the sessions were originally issued on two 10″ records, titled Jazzical Moods. Bethlehem then acquired the material and repackaged and remastered it as this 12″ record. 180g vinyl LP reissue.
