If you play Goodbye Pork Pie Hat at exactly 22mins past 1 in the am and chant Mingus Mingus Ah Um Mingus 7 times Manny Calevera rides in on the bone wagon to reap your soul.

the Swingin' Candyman



some excellent song titles - 'The Shoes Of The Fisherman's Wife Are Some Jive Ass Slippers' and 'All the Things You Could Be by Now If Sigmund Freud's Wife Was Your Mother'.

when he was on, this guy was an absolute genius. the arrangements, church influence and hollering in the background, tempo changes, dynamics, energy...he and Ellington could make music come alive. only gotten around to hearing Ellington recently but it put Mingus in context a bit more
