Remastered
When driving a band with the upright, or double bass, Charles Mingus looked--and was--gigantic, in
more ways than one. He had huge creative appetites (as well as being hot tempered), creating his own
combination of hard bop, blues, and avant-garde jazz. There was no one more multi-faceted than Mingus
between the 1950s and 1970s and of his many albums, Mingus Ah Um (1959) is considered to be a jazz
classic.
When Columbia first issued this album, 6 of the 9 tracks were shortened drastically to fit them on the LP.
Later reissues (on CD) have included the tracks in their original full length, but this edition of the album
had not been released on vinyl yet. We are excited to release the album 50 years after its original conception, as it was intended by the Angry Man of Jazz himself.

xHorace ParlanMovin' and Groovin' (45RPM)
This 1960 trio date was pianist Parlan's first of many great releases for Blue Note. The Pittsburgh native, who overcame polio as a child that left his right hand crippled, had gained some serious props with his contributions on two of Charles Mingus' best albums the year prior (Mingus Ah Um, Blues And Roots), and was now ready to step out on his own. Choosing to tackle mostly standards, Parlan channels his idol Bud Powell's classic trio dates with the able assistance of Blue Note regulars Sam Jones, bass and drummer Al Harewood. The result is an eclectic mix, interpreting the works of Tadd Dameron, Duke Ellington, Milt Jackson and Burke-Van Heussen plus a Parlan original, Up In Cynthia's Room, which became one of his signature pieces.

Import180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl

Listed as one of the four most influential Jazz albums that happened to be released in 1959 (Dave Brubeck - Time Out & Charles Mingus - Ah Um among them), so much has been said and written about Miles Davis' Kind Of Blue, it's virtually impossible to summarize all the necessary info to the length of this page. We could simply list some facts (best sold Jazz album ever worldwide). We could try to explain why it's the best Jazz album ever made, but the music itself will do that to you.
As Bill Evans said in the original liner notes for the record, the band did not play through any of these pieces prior to recording. Miles Davis laid out the themes before the tape rolled and the band improvised. The end results were fragile and wondrous. Recorded during 2 sessions in 1959, Kind of Blue worked on many different levels and will do so for many years to come.1. So What
