Reissue of the 1955 Classic featuring Stormy Weather and Thrice Upon A Time.

Originally released as a series of 10-inches, before being compiled into an LP, this album is one of Charles Mingus’ first masterworks, an album that hints at the compositional flourishes he’d bring to his masterpieces Mingus Ah Um and Black Saint and the Sinner Lady. A portrait of the artist as a young man, delivered in two sides of delightful jazz.
