I'm thinking this is third best Mingus slightly over Blues and Roots.

Love Supreme is a favorite but honestly when I hear Coltrane I usually feel like he needs to quit hogging all the solo time haha no denying his talent but I need more variety than sax sax sax

yeah Mingus was more of a composer with his arrangements while Coltrane was more of a frontman. Nothing wrong with either, but it's pretty easy to see why someone would prefer one over the other

127 ratings for an album with Love Chant on does not make sense

Insanely good album. Mingus was so ahead of his contemporaries at this time it’s not even funny.

Seriously, this and The Clown are one hell of a one-two punch to kickstart a career
