1	Blues and Roots (1959) more music like this by Charles Mingus In response to critical carping that his ambitious, evocative music somehow didn't swing enough, Charles Mingus returned to the earthiest and earliest sources of black musical expression, namely the blues, gospel, and old-time New Orleans jazz. The resulting LP, Blues and Roots, isn't quite as wildly eclectic as usual, but it ranks as arguably ... see all copies from $10.76! new only from $10.76!
2	Passions of a Man: The Complete Atlantic Recordings (1956-1961) (1956) more music like this by Charles Mingus Passions of a Man: The Complete Atlantic Recordings (1956-1961) presents an interesting problem. There's little arguing that the music on Passions of a Man is seminal, ranking among his very best recordings. The question is whether the six-disc set is indispensable, considering that it is low on unreleased material and boasts one full interview ... see all copies from $30.00! new only from $69.71!
3	The Essential Mingus Big Band (2001) more music like this by Mingus Big Band A fine "best of" collection drawn from the Mingus Big Band's five-disc output since 1993. The disc captures the flow and live energy of the band's regular Thursday-night gig at Fez Under Time Café in New York. The highlights are many: Ronnie Cuber's baritone sax work on "Moanin'" and his touching narration on "Nostalgia in Times Square"; Kenny ... see all copies from $15.11! new only from $15.11!
4	Not the Same (2004) more music like this by Benny Lackner Trio see all copies from $26.68! new only from $26.68!
5	The Very Best of Charles Mingus (The Atlantic Years) (2001) more music like this by Charles Mingus The task of choosing the best work of Charles Mingus would be a daunting one. There's literally so much good material in a number of different settings, that the "best" of Charles Mingus could never be contained on one CD. Then again, it is extremely difficult for a newcomer to approach Mingus' multiple recordings and know where to begin. Rhino ... see all copies from $12.88! new only from $12.88!
6	The Very Best of Charles Mingus [Rhino] (2008) more music like this by Charles Mingus This 11-cut greatest-hits collection of the recordings of Charles Mingus is simply comprised of what are considered to be his best-known titles recorded for the Atlantic label between 1956 and 1959. The title tune from Pithecanthropus Erectus kicks off the set in grand style with fine solos by Jackie McLean on alto and J.R. Monterose on tenor. It ... see all copies from $11.23! new only from $11.23!
7	Royal 'T' (1993) more music like this by Tito Puente Tito Puente has long championed Latin-jazz, a combination of Latin percussion and rhythms with bebop-oriented jazz. This release from the Concord Picante label serves as a perfect introduction to his music. For this date Puente (who performs on timbales and marimba) uses six horns, piano, bass, synthesizer and three other percussionists to play ... see all copies from $12.95! new only from $12.95!
8	The Art of Charles Mingus (1956) more music like this by Charles Mingus This two-LP set gives listeners a fine overview of Charles Mingus's classic Atlantic recordings. Drawing from four seperate sessions covering a five-year period, this two-fer is highlighted by "Moanin'," the wild "Ecclusiastics" (which features Rahsaan Roland Kirk), "Haitian Fight Song" and "Reincarnation of a Lovebird." Better to get the complete ... see all copies from $24.00!
9	Mingus Big Band 93: Nostalgia in Times Square (1993) more music like this by Mingus Big Band There have been many attempts to revisit the music of Charles Mingus ever since his death in 1979 (with several of the groups being called Mingus Dynasty), but this is by far the most successful of all the Mingus tribute albums. The 20-piece Mingus Big Band is an all-star unit comprised of mostly younger musicians who have spent several years ... see all copies from $10.46! new only from $10.46!
