Charles Mingus - Changes: The Complete 1970s Atlantic Studio Recordings 8LP Boxset
Charles Mingus is the most important American jazz composer after Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn. As part of the ongoing celebration of Mingus’ centennial, Rhino will release a new boxed set that spotlights the creative resurgence that defined the final phase of the legendary bassist and composer’s career.
This upcoming collection includes the last seven studio albums Mingus recorded for Atlantic Records between 1973 and his death in 1979 and a selection of outtakes - some previously unreleased.
Five previously unreleased recordings debut in the new vinyl collection. Three outtakes: “Big Alice,” “The Call,” and “Music for ‘Todo Modo" plus additional unreleased takes for “Big Alice” and “The Call” that are exclusive to this vinyl set.
