  • @Nimno74 WHAT...Mingus and Duke had a great relationship. Duke admired Mingus playing greatly. It's just that Mingus wasn't a good fit for the Duke Ellington Orchestra....Mingus said in his biography that Duke fired him with a smile and wished him luck. Wasn't really any hard feelings to it. Mingus just clashed with other people in the band like Juan Tizol.

  • Amazing…ultimate trio.

  • Ecoutez et rêvez !!!!

  • Relaxing!

  • Once i read (in the  "Charles Mingus Live at Montreux" booklet) there were no recordings witnessing mingus' collaboration with duke ellington. today I found 'money jungle' in the library. It made my day! Three pure geniuses in the same room......

  • Excelente jamás había oído a Duke Elington tocando con Mingus y Roach, tal vez no tienen el bop rápido como ellos, pero esta pieza habla de que gran música hizó la junta de estos genios.

    Disfrutenla =) ¡Paz..!

  • Holy Balzac but that bass is both totally insane and perfectly judged. How the hell does he control his fingers that well? Wow.

  • This is incredible. Never heard it before.

  • Thumbs up if The Wire, season 1 brought you here.
