Friday Night Jazz: The Very Early Monday Morning Edition
Two weeks in a row now I've served up belated jazz fixins. For that, I apologize. Last week my excuse was that I was only just getting used to a new time zone. This week, now that I'm a couple of days late -- so late that my original title "Sunday Night Jazz" isn't even appropriate for most of you -- the only excuse I can serve up is: Friday was really busy [NSFW].Anyway, I'm home now, tapping out a new resume & cover letter in hopes of landing a dream job; or, barring that unlikelihood, something not completely nightmarish. All the while, Mingus is screaming avant garde jazz in my ear. Belated or not, I think you'll enjoy tonight's music.
From Mingus at Antibes, we kick things off with the tongue-speakin' opening track, "Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting".
After that, we have the untitled opening track from Mingus' six-part ballet The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady.
