When this LP was released in 1962, it was honoured with the maximum number of stars that Downbeat, the most famous of all jazz magazines, could award. And nota bene the recordings were already five years old! Is there any better proof that the composer and arranger Charlie Mingus was ahead of his time? As a double bassist he was rather less virtuosic than his fellow musicians – and not just on these recordings. However, these five numbers earned every single star of the five they were awarded. They illustrate his masterly handling of Mexican folk music and his skill in integrating it into his jazz. The small ensemble of Clarence Shaw, whom Mingus described as a super-improviser on the trumpet, Jimmy Knepper, a technical ace on the trombone, the legendary tenor saxophone player Shafi Hadi, and his longstanding friend Dannie Richmond on the drums all earn the very highest recognition, even though the sextet of 1963/64 once more enhanced their creativity in later years. No record collection is complete without the present highlight. Grab this opportunity to close the gap on your shelf, especially since these recorded jewels have an unusually good sound. This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. More information under http://www.pure-analogue.com.

Als diese LP 1962 erschien, wurde sie mit der höchstmöglichen Sternchenzahl im Downbeat, der berühmtesten Jazzzeitschrift, geehrt. Dabei waren die Aufnahmen bereits fünf Jahre alt! Gibt es ein besseres Kriterium dafür, wie weit der Komponist und Arrangeur Charlie Mingus seiner Zeit voraus war? Als Bassist war er nicht nur bei diesen Aufnahmen eher weniger virtuos als seine Kollegen. Aber diese fünf Titel verdienen jeden einzelnen der fünf Jubelsterne. Sie illustrieren seinen meisterhaften Umgang mit der mexikanischen Volksmusik, seine Fähigkeit, diese in den Jazz einfließen zu lassen. Die kleine Besetzung mit Clarence Shaw, den Mingus als Superimprovisator auf der Trompete bezeichnet, mit Jimmy Knepper, dem exzellenten Techniker auf den Posaunen und der Altsaxophon-Legende Shafi Hadi und mit seinem langjährigen Freund Dannie Richmond am Schlagzeug verdient allerhöchste Anerkennung, auch wenn das Sextett von 1963/64 nochmals eine Steigerung der Kreativität erreichte. Ohne dieses Highlight ist keine Schallplattensammlung komplett. Jetzt ist Gelegenheit, die Lücke zu schließen, zumal ein ungewöhnlich guter Sound die Aufnahmen zu einer echten Perle werden lassen. Diese Speakers Corner Produktion wurde unter Verwendung von analogem Masterband und Mastering 100% rein analog gefertigt. Mehr Informationen unter http://www.pure-analogue.com.
