Charles Mingus   Blues and Roots  (Atlantic SD 1305) Early 60’s stereo deep-groove pressing.Here on this legendary date, Mingus assembles an incredible 9-piece all-star ensemble, with heavyweights such as Jackie McLean, Pepper Adam, Booker Ervin and John Handy on on various saxophones, Mal Waldron and Horace Parlan on piano, Jimmy Knepper on trombone, and Danny Richmond on percussion.  The playing here is at times wild, and always surprising with multiple interweaving lines from soloists, and rapid changes of pace from rhythm leader Mingus on bass.  Electricity and excitement from beginning to end, and my personal favorite from the great Charles Mingus.
