A long "yeah mannnnnn", with finger snaps on this video.A supremely heartfelt thanks for the post.Mingus was the man. Ther are many excellent players, but you always have an affinity toward your first love, and I've always loved his style.

I love those little bass fills that charlie plays after every modulation. Goodbye Pork Pie Hat is, in my opinion, one of the most meaningful blues and jazz standards, because it was jammed after mingus' band heard, that Lester Young died.
Also think the line up is just amazing...

Not at all, when i hear music i dont think hmm i need to know who that music is by before i can enjoy it. Its music you dont need think, you feel it. If i hear a bad song, i dont care who its by, thats not going to make me want to listen to it.
It gets silly when you start judging how good something is based on who its by, thats where it starts getting pretentious becasue people start rubbishing music regardless of content or quality and vice versa.

if that was true, everybody would like everything. If you don`t know anything about a culture is harder, not impossible, but harder to aprecciate it.

Why would you need any knowledge to appreciate it, all you need are ears.

This must be like early Duke Ellington, only a minimum is jottet down, the rest left to each musos interpretation, marvellous.

I think I caught this concert on TV a year ago, but I didn't know enough about Mingus at the time to fully appreciate it.

That's Gerry Mulligan on the baritone sax if I'm not mistaken. Nice to see him playing in this old video performance. Excellent ensemble teamwork.

Wait a second. Are you saying this guy playing the big violin is Mingus?! Did the Alan Parsons Project break up?! Whoa.

Mingus has kinda been playing a lot longer than Geddy Lee and plays an entirely different genre and plays on an upright, which has a substantially different orientation, but you can go ahead and frolic about in your own little narrow world.

mingus, mingus, oh yeah!!this is a classic.. thank you so much.

I know there's two, you misunderstood my sentence. I meant that I prefer when there's a sax, but that when there isn't any its still good.

My god! That was so f...in hot!!! Thank you wrgu for posting this. Damn, so hot...
It's like an acquired taste - somebody coming straight from punk rock isn't going to be able to enjoy jazz at first, simply because it's so different. Then with time you notice the intricacies of it and become used to it - and you can grow to like it.
Just as punk would probably sound like garbage to someone who hasn't given it some time.
