Mingus, Charles - Blues And Roots

NEW VINYL LP ON DOL 2017

180 GRAM VINYL.

This is Charles Mingus’ complete original album ‘Blues & Roots’ (originally Atlantic,1959), which was almost entirely based on the blues. Mostly improvised on the spot (Mingus didn’t explain the basics of each tune to the musicians until the last minute). The album was highly praised at the time, and has since become a true classic.
