Mingus was hardly ignored during his lifetime... also, it's not as though he was playing popular music... glad to see this, had no idea Ray Davies did something of this nature...
Incredible hostility toward people who obviously greatly respect the man. You think maybe Elvis married Krall because he loves her and not based on whether she's authentic-jazz enough for you? You think Mingus - one of the greatest composers of the 20th c. IMHO - didn't go well beyond the jazz idiom by anyone's standards? I think that's what Declan means when he says "I don't think of it like jazz," meaning "not just jazz as we usually think of it." I love Mingus, but I loved Ray & Elvis first.

The stability of my mental health depends on discovering that b&w video and listening to it every day. Really.

@Whatisthescore you don't think he's paying his dues by being married to that other imitator?
