It’s true—Charles Mingus was passionate, explosive, often furious. But he was a genius, with not only visionary brilliance but also profound emotional sensitivity. Goodbye Pork Pie Hat, from Mingus Ah Um (1959), is vivid proof of this.

The same blues as Goodbye Pork Pie Hat, but more theatrical, more orchestrated and more solemn.
