POPULARITY
STANDARS SEMANAL-.las cosas ya no son lo que eran.-VINILOS MITICOS DEL JAZZ-J913 - Charles Mingus-1959 Mingus Ah Um.-AZZACTUALIDAD-.JUAN DE DIEGO-GREBALARIAK-AZKEN UDA Mingus Ah Um es un álbum de estudio del músico de jazz estadounidense Charles Mingus que fue lanzado en octubre de 1959 por Columbia Records . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Fue su primer álbum grabado para Columbia. La portada presenta una pintura de S. Neil Fujita . [ 5 ] El título es una corrupción de una declinación latina imaginaria . Es común que los estudiantes de latín memoricen adjetivos latinos diciendo primero el nominativo masculino (generalmente terminado en " -us "), luego el nominativo femenino (" -a "), y finalmente elnominativo singular neutro (" -um ") [ 6 ] —lo que implica una transformación de su nombre, Mingus, Minga, Mingum . El álbum fue incluido en el Salón de la Fama de los Grammy en 2013. [ 7 ] Ocupó el puesto 380 en los 500 mejores álbumes de todos los tiempos de la Rolling Stone . La Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD llama a este álbum "un homenaje extendido a los antepasados" (y le otorga una de sus raras coronas), [ 8 ] y los antepasados musicales de Mingus aparecen en gran medida en todo el álbum. "Better Git It In Your Soul" está inspirada en el canto gospel y la predicación del tipo que Mingus habría escuchado cuando era niño en Watts, Los Ángeles, California , mientras que " Goodbye Pork Pie Hat " es una referencia (a través de su sombrero favorito) al saxofonista Lester Young (que había muerto poco antes de que se grabara el álbum). El origen y la naturaleza de "Boogie Stop Shuffle" se explican por sí solos: un blues de doce compases con cuatro temas y un acompañamiento de bajo boogie que pasa del tiempo detenido al shuffle y viceversa. "Self-Portrait in Three Colors" fue escrita originalmente para la primera película de John Cassavetes como director, Shadows , pero nunca se usó (por razones presupuestarias). "Open Letter to Duke" es un homenaje a Duke Ellington y se basa en tres de las piezas anteriores de Mingus ("Nouroog", "Duke's Choice" y "Slippers"). "Jelly Roll" es una referencia al pionero del jazz y pianista Jelly Roll Morton y presenta una cita de "Sonnymoon for Two" de Sonny Rollins durante el solo de piano de Horace Parlan . "Bird Calls", en las propias palabras de Mingus, no era una referencia al saxofonista de bebop Charlie "Bird" Parker : "No se suponía que sonara como Charlie Parker. Se suponía que sonara como pájaros, la primera parte". " Fables of Faubus " debe su nombre a Orval E. Faubus (1910-1994), el gobernador de Arkansas, famoso por su postura de 1957 contra la integración de las escuelas de Little Rock, Arkansas , desafiando los fallos de la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos (obligando al presidente Eisenhower a enviar a la Guardia Nacional ). Columbia Records se negó a permitir que se incluyera la letra de la canción, [ 9 ] por lo que la canción se grabó como instrumental en el álbum. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] No fue hasta el 20 de octubre de 1960 que la canción se grabó con letra, para el álbum Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus , que se lanzó en el sello más independiente Candid . [ 10 ] Debido a problemas contractuales con Columbia, la canción no pudo publicarse como "Fables of Faubus", por lo que la versión de Candid se tituló "Original Faubus Fables". Azken Uda JUAN DE DIEGO-GREBALARIAK CD JAZZ / LATIN-JAZZ ERRABAL JAZZ (GH ER169 02) 8436010309314 Tras la edición de su primer trabajo homónimo en 2021, el trompetista/músico vasco-catalán retoma la senda de su antecesor con este sorprendente "Azken Uda" (El último verano). Un trabajo grabado en los estudios Sol de Sants de Barcelona por Alberto Pérez los días 11 y 12 de octubre, que cuenta además del propio Juan De Diego a la trompeta y flugel, con la colaboración de Toni Saigi al piano, Pere Loewe al contrabajo y Ramon Prats a la batería. Un disco que pone de manifiesto la indiscutible belleza de las composiciones escritas por Juan de Diego a la hora de transitar por la senda del jazz contemporáneo, música efervescente y colorida, con una cierta intencionalidad Be-Bop que desvela un carácter orgánico, flexible y vital a lo largo de sus surcos.
Tonight's Jazz Feature is one of Charles Mingus' masterpieces that was recorded , as were many other iconic Jazz recordings in 1959. It is overlooked sometimes as it was Mingus' second album from that year. He really scored with "Mingus Ah Um" his first for Columbia. Not only did it lift Mingus from the "underground" category but got massive critical acclaim and was Mingus' best selling record. His second, tonight's Jazz Feature was called "Mingus Dynasty" and Mingus was able to augment his regular working band with added musicians to expand the ensembles and enable him to explore more complex writing as well. His working group included Richard Williams on trumpet, Jimmy Knepper on trombone, John Handy on alto saxophone, Booker Ervin on tenor saxophone, Roland Hanna on piano and of course, Dannie Richmond on drums and Mingus on bass. Added on many of the selections in non-soloing roles are Benny Golson on tenor saxophone, Jerome Richardson on baritone saxophone and flute, Teddy Charles on vibes and even two cellos on a couple of selections. This album ranks among Mingus' best and the tunes vary from some Ellington tributes in two tunes to Mingus' original creations ranging from the gospel flavored "Slop" to the formal masterwork "Far Wells, Mill Valley". "Mingus Dynasty" will challenge and inspire you...guaranteed!
A Lightweight Champion, a female politician who challenged the glass ceiling, and an influential jazz musician. Who were they?Today's episode shares three more mixed-race public figures from history. Coined “The Reading Hour”, listen along as Jolie reads about these dynamic trailblazers.Saoul Paul Mamby (1947–2019) was an American boxer who held the WBC super lightweight title from 1980 to 1982. Born in the South Bronx, New York, to parents of Spanish and Jamaican descent, Mamby converted to Judaism at a young age. He began boxing in 1963, turned professional in 1969, and served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. Mamby's boxing career included notable victories and title defenses, facing opponents like Roberto Durán and Saengsak Muangsurin. He continued fighting into his 50s and attempted a comeback at age 60, becoming one of the oldest boxers to compete in an officially sanctioned bout. Known for his durability, Mamby was stopped only once in 85 professional fights.Mae Street Kidd (1904–1999) was an American businesswoman, civic leader, and politician known for her significant contributions during a time when gender and racial barriers were prominent. Born in Kentucky to an interracial family, she had a distinguished career in public relations and served in the Red Cross during WWII. In politics, she represented Louisville in the Kentucky House of Representatives from 1968 to 1984, advocating for landmark legislation such as the creation of the Kentucky Housing Corporation and the ratification of the Reconstruction Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Kidd's legacy reflects her resilience and commitment to civil rights.Charles Mingus Jr. (1922–1979) was a multifaceted American jazz musician known for his prowess as an upright bassist, composer, bandleader, and pianist. He was a key figure in jazz history, collaborating with luminaries like Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, and Max Roach. Mingus' innovative compositions spanned genres from bebop to avant-garde jazz, showcased in albums like "Pithecanthropus Erectus" and "Mingus Ah Um." His music continues to be celebrated, performed by groups like the Mingus Big Band. Mingus' life was marked by his diverse heritage and experiences with racism, shaping his music's themes of injustice and discrimination. He was also known for his tempestuous personality and occasionally violent temper, alongside his brilliance as a musician. Mingus left a lasting legacy in jazz, honored with accolades like induction into the Grammy Hall of Fame and a US postage stamp in his honor.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saoul_Mambyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mae_Street_Kiddhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_MingusDOWNLOAD and SUBSCRIBE to Generation Mixed, on Apple, Spotify, IHeart, or Spreaker!FOLLOW US: Instagram: @generationmixedpodcast | https://www.instagram.com/generationmixedpodcast/Tik-Tok: @GenMixedpodcast | https://www.tiktok.com/@genmixedpodcastSubscribe to our newsletter at www.nuwavemedia.orgE-mail us with any questions, comments, or suggestions for future episodes: Generationmixedpodcast@gmail.comWanna be on the show?

Jazzvaneio 03, Imersão em quatro atos: Álbuns Década de 70Ato Terceiro: Charles Mingus “Let My Children Hear Music”Terceiro de quatro PodCast que propõem uma desafiadora imersão aos anos 70. Um homem e sua inexorável ânsia de expandir a linguagem da música e da composição improvisada pelos próprios alicerces do Jazz às últimas consequências. Um subversivo e visionário Charles Mingus precipita-se a tal empresa como um Colosso em plena comunhão com a “Terra” e suas raízes. Um impiedoso e ambíguo emaranhado de maiúscula sofisticação irmanado a um “primitivismo” não isento de crueza. “Let My Children Hear Music” é um manifesto compositivo que ainda assombra e apaixona impunemente os amantes de música. Uma obra de arte ímpar, estamos em 1972...Preparem-se!Album: Charles Mingus “Let My Children Hear Music” 1972 - Columbiawww.charlesmingus.comAto gravado no dia 15 de Setembro de 2020Texto da “The Chill of Death” Charles Mingus “Let MY Children Hear Music”:“The chill of death as she clutched my hand.I knew she was coming so I stood like a man. She drew up closer, close enough for me to look into her face, and then began to wonder, "Haven't I seen you some other place?" She beckoned for me to come closer as if to pay an old debt. I knew what she wanted; it wasn't quite time yet. She threw her arms about me as many women had done before. I heard her whisper, "You'll never cheat me, never anymore." Darkness and nothingness clouded my mind. I began to realise death was nothing to fear but something sweet and kind. I pinched to see if I was dreaming but failed to find bodily form. I then began to realize death had worked her charm. Taking myself of nothingness I chose a road to walk. I noticed death's pleasantness with no one to stop me to talk. I remembered stories of heaven as I envisioned the glory ahead. Two roads lay waiting for me to choose one now that I was dead. One road was dark; I could not see clearly such long stretched highway. The other road was golden and glowing, and shined as bright as day. I then remember stories of pearly gates, golden streets... or how... however those stories are told. I knew I'd reach heaven on this highway. If not, I'd have the gold. I took one footstep feeling safe and acting bold. Suddenly, I realised my mistake. My chosen road turned black, bittery, and white cold. No longer was it golden glory nor heaven that it's in. White hot flames were blazing; I saw the devil with his grin. I had taken but one footstep so I turned to hurry back. But there a sound more waited, not a door, nor a crack. Finally, coming to my senses, I walked on to my hell. For long before death had called me, my end was planned. Planned, but well”.Outras Referências Artísticas e “culturais” (por ordem de menção): Third Stream (movimento que buscava a incorporação de influências da música de câmera e sinfônica clássica ao Jazz nos anos 70), Pithecanthropus Erectus (Álbum do Charles Mingus), The Clown (Álbum do Charles Mingus), Mingus Ah Um (Álbum do Charles Mingus), The Black Saint and The Sinner Lady (Álbum do Charles Mingus), Joni Mitchell (Músico), Mingus (Álbum da Joni Mitchell), Herbie Hancock (Músico), Wayne Shorter (Músico), Teo Macero (Produdor Musical), Bitches Brew (Álbum do Miles Davis), In a Silent Way (Álbum do Miles Davis), Kind of Blue (Álbum do Miles Davis), Time Out (Álbum do Dave Brubeck), Miles Davis (Músico), Federico Fellini (Diretor de Cinema), Mr. Bungle (banda de Rock), Cardiacs (Banda de Rock), Duke Ellington (Músico), Edgard Varèse (Músico), Arnold Schoenberg (Músico), Pierre Boulez (Músico), Olivier Messiaen (Músico), Glenn Miller (Músico), Charlie Parker (Músico), Tidal (Plataforma de Streaming), Godfather (Filme Dirigido por Francis For Coppola), Nino Rota (Músico), The Halls of Fear (Música da trilha sonora do filme Godfather de 1972), Frank Zappa (Músico), Studio Tan (Álbum do Frank Zappa), The Adventures Of Greggery Peccary (Música do Frank Zappa) eBaratos Afins (Loja e Selo Musical de São Paulo).Contato: info@jazzvaneio.com

This Deep Listening session features Charles Mingus's "Goodbye Porkpie Hat," from the album Mingus Ah Um.
Con Carlos López I Dos sesiones de grabación (5 y 12 de mayo de 1959) fueron suficientes para reunir en un mismo álbum, otra vez para el sello Columbia, una selección de temas que configurarían un nuevo camino de expresión artística. “Mingus Ah Um” cumple 60 años y su música muestra el estilo personal, coherente y emotivo que desarrolló su creador, el contrabajista Charles Mingus. Aquí, los ingredientes más vulgares se codean con los más nobles, los tempos y las atmósferas cambian de modo violento e incluso los valores más tradicionales se convierten en vanguardia.

1959 fût une année marquante pour Charles Mingus. Après “Blues & Roots”, qu'il enregistre au mois de février pour le label Atlantic, le contrebassiste reprend le chemin des studios dès le mois de mai, et cette fois pour le compte de la Columbia… C'est “Mingus Ah Um”... Ancré dans l'histoire du jazz avec ses hommages à Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Jelly Roll Morton et Lester Young, « Mingus Ah Um » est l'oeuvre d'un musicien en colère, engagé et en pleine conscience: au gouverneur de l'Arkansas qui voulait interdire l'accès des écoles aux étudiants de couleur en 1957, Mingus adresse son vindicatif « Fables Of Faubus ». Avec des titres comme « Better Git It In Your Soul » et « Boogie Stop Shuffle », Mingus trouve l'équilibre parfait entre cri primal et écriture savante... Soniquement parfait et particulièrement inspiré, « Mingus Ah Um » c'est le jazz dans ce qu'il a de plus pur, incarné par un contrebassiste meneur d'hommes et gouailleur, alors au sommet de son art...

As the third of The Jazz Show's features of classics recorded in 1959,, we present Charles Mingus and his breakthrough album, "Mingus Ah Um" done for Columbia Records. This was the remarkable recording that rose Mingus up from the underground of Jazz to national prominence. Not only was this a productive period in Mingus' career, he also had one of his finest working bands as the 1959 edition of his "Jazz Workshop". John Handy on alto and tenor saxophone and clarinet, Booker Ervin on tenor saxophone, Horace Parlan on piano, Dannie Richmond on drums and of course Mingus on bass and occasionally piano. For these sessions Mingus was allowed to bring in some alumni from previous Workshops. Trombonists Jimmy Knepper and Willie Dennis are heard on various pieces as well as alto and tenor saxophonist Shafi Hadi who doesn't solo but fills out the ensembles with his sound. The album is beautifully produced and Mingus supervised everything, editing, order of the tunes, the notes. It marked the recorded debut of three of his most enduring compositions, "Better Get It In Your Soul". "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" and "Fables of Faubus" among many other gems. "Mingus Ah Um" opened many door for people and Charles Mingus and we'll hear it tonight!
Music doesn’t always make it easy on you. It often challenges you. It shocks you. It confuses you. And through that, it makes you hear other music differently after a journey down a twisty path leading you through unfamiliar cultural and artistic territory to destinations you didn’t anticipate. Soon, you find yourself both challenged and delighted, too. That’s what Charles Mingus’ classic 1959 LP Mingus Ah Um did for Rob as a young jazz fan. What lessons did he take from it? What do his bandmates in the Deeper Cuts trio think of the record? What journeys did they find themselves on? Put on your porkpie hats and find out, dear listeners. Our Spotify playlist has all the songs from this album. Each week, we've been adding all the other albums we've covered this season to it as well, so check it out!
If you're looking for interracial witty banter come no further than this exciting new episode of Open Ears Closed Minds. This week Jeff takes us on a music journey through the Jazz classic Mingus Ah Um by Charles Mingus. Strap in and put on your listening helmet y'all.
This album which received raves from the critics and public alike was bassist/composer Charles Mingus' debut on a major label, Columbia Records. It was Mingus' breakthrough from the Jazz underground. Not only was the music great and played by one of Mingus' best bands but it was beautifully recorded. Mingus was given free reign to hire and do what he wished and was also allowed to program the record and supervise the post-recording editing. It became Mingus' best selling record as well. Mingus regular working band at the time (1959) was a quintet and it comprised three newcomers to New York. Alto and tenor saxophonist John Handy (heard mostly on alto here), and tenor saxophonist Booker Ervin and pianist Horace Parlan and Mingus' reliable and dynamic drummer Dannie Richmond. Columbia permitted Mingus to add alto and tenor saxophonist Shafi Hadi to fill out the ensembles and Jimmy Knepper and Willie Dennis on trombone....all Mingus alumnae. It's all here from the gospel tinged "Better Git it in Your Soul" to the mournful "Goodbye Pork-Pie Hat" to the bitter "Fables of Faubus".....a Mingus classic and tonight's Jazz Feature!
"Mingus Dynasty" was bassist/composer Charles Mingus' second album for Columbia Records. His first "Mingus Ah Um" was his best selling album and it elevated Mingus out of the Jazz underground. Mingus was on his way. This second album was even more varied and much better programmed. It featured Mingus' working group with John Handy (alto), Booker Ervin (tenor) Jimmy Knepper (trombone) and Dannie Richmond(drums) as hold overs from the first album. The newcomers were Richard Williams (trumpet) and Roland Hanna (piano). That was the working group and on this date Mingus added some non-soloing horns to the mix on several tunes expanding the sound. The compositions are a mix of moods from loose jams to formal compositions and the moods vary from gentle and reflective to boiling and angry and everything in between. One of Mingus' finest recordings! Mingus Dynasty indeed!
programa 1- Mingus Ah Um, de Charles Mingus y Puertos, de Daniel Camelo & Inmigrantes Big Band
Booker Ervin was one of the most identifiable voices of the tenor saxophone. He possessed a high, hard, keening sound and a rich blues based concept. He was also Charles Mingus' favourite saxophonist and worked with Mingus and recorded with Mr. Mingus on some of his most important albums such as "Mingus Ah Um", "Blues and Roots", etc. Ervin was born in Denison,Texas on Oct 31,1930 and died of kidney failure at 39 in July of 1970. He recorded a number of fine albums under his own name, especially for Prestige Records. Tonight's Feature was his first done in April of 1960. Booker picked the men and did so wisely. On second tenor saxophone was the great Zoot Sims and Booker and Zoot make an interesting contrast. On trumpet was the older Turrentine brother, Tommy, in fine form. The "poet of the piano" is in fine fettle on this date and will surprise you with his funky, bluesy playing on many of the tunes. George Tucker, a great bassist who studied with Mingus plays exceedingly well with one of Mingus' main men, drummer Dannie Richmond. 5 of the six tunes are by Booker Ervin and they naturally reflect a Mingus attitude. The final tune is a lovely old standard called "Poor Butterfly". This was Booker Ervin's debut recording under his name and it's a good one, worth searching for. However you needn't go too far because you can hear it right here!
