## Description

Digitally remastered and repackaged edition of this six CD box set. Charles Mingus&apos;s Atlantic recordings represent the first full realization of his immensely original talent, pressing the boundaries to create an ever more fluent, expressive music. The set highlights the appearance of sidemen who could participate fully in Mingus&apos;s visionary work, including trombonist Jimmy Knepper and drummer Dannie Richmond. The multi-reed player Eric Dolphy was unquestionably his greatest collaborator. The live recordings from the 1960 Antibes Jazz Festival present what may well have been Mingus&apos;s greatest band, with Dolphy&apos;s leaping, skittering, free-jazz virtuosity effectively contrasted with Booker Ervin&apos;s booting, full-toned tenor. The final Atlantic session presents another change in direction, with Mingus switching to piano and singing some manic blues in the company of Roland Kirk, another musician well attuned to Mingus&apos;s always complex aims.

Why include a whole CD comprising of an audio interview? I don't get it. If you must, just include it as a MP3 audio file as an extra on one of the other audio CDs.OK, apart from that issue, & the fact that the original albums are not represented in their original order (much like Atlantic did for their Ornette Coleman release, & others), I can wholeheartedly recommend this box set release. Excellent music, & the included booklet is well done.

    Un chapitre de musique afro-américaine quintessentielle
  
  

*by "***" on Reviewed in France on 21 January 2014*

C'est rauque, c'est puissant, c'est avant-gardiste et... c'est beau, bref, c'est Charlie Mingus.Ce coffret contient l'intégrale des six albums enregistrés par le contrebassiste prodige chez Atlantic, plus des prises alternatives en bonus.Il faut savoir que ce coffret, sorti en 1997, est épuisé chez l'éditeur (Warner, dans une très belle remasterisation) et qu'il se vend à plus de €100 d'occasion sans garantie d'authenticité. Il s'agit véritablement d'un classique de l'art du 20ème siècle que tout mélomane se doit d'écouter. L'inclusion de l'album "Jazz at Antibes" peut sembler saugrenue dans le sens où il a été enregistré et publié par Barclay, mais il montre l'étendue de la richesse stylistique de Mingus qui s'est lancé ouvertement dans l'aventure du jazz moderne avec Eric Dolphy, tout en maintenant ses racines dans des pièces inspirées du blues.C'est donc un véritable panorama de la culture afro-américaine des années 60-70 que nous offre ce coffret via la démonstration de l’éclectisme et de l'excellence de l'homme en colère Charles Mingus, renforcé par la présentation chronologique des œuvres.Notez que le dernier CD contient un entretien d'1h15 avec Charlie Mingus, qui ne sera apprécié que par les auditeurs anglophones, de même que le contenu du livret de 112 pages qui, en plus d'une présentation du musicien et d'une brève histoire du label Atlantic Records, contient la reproduction des pochettes originales et de leurs textes.A se procurer et à écouter d'urgence et sans limites donc, c'est un grand et beau voyage au cœur de la profondeur humaine de l'homme révolté américain dont le chant demeure intemporel.

Worth buying for Live at Antibes alone.
