Better Get It in Your Soul
Brian Priestley continues his series exploring the work of composer, bassist and bandleader Charles Mingus. In 1960 Mingus organised an alternative festival at Newport, with drummer Max Roach. Mingus and Roach collaborated again in 1962 - with Duke Ellington - on a trio recording, Money Jungle. In the same year Mingus assembled a big band for an ill-fated concert at New York's Town Hall, but it was a new 11-piece group that provided the vehicle for his studio masterpiece of 1963, The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady. With contributions from John Handy ,
Roland Hanna , Dannie Richmond , Charlie Mariano , George Wein and from Mingus himself.
