Mingus Ah Um - Charles Mingus - Vinyl LP Record (Arrives in 20 days)

The Penguin Guide to Jazz has called
Mingus Ah Um "an extended tribute to
ancestors" and awarded it with one of
their rare crowns. It is, in fact, one of
Mingus' most personal albums, and
produced a series of songs that have
become standards. "Better Git It in Your
Soul" is inspired by gospel singing and
preaching of the sort that Mingus would
have heard as a child growing up in Watts,
Los Angeles, California, while "Goodbye
Pork Pie Hat" is a reference (by way of his
favored headgear) to saxophonist Lester
Young (who had died shortly before the
album was recorded).
