Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus

Album by Charles Mingus

Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus is a studio album by American jazz bassist and composer Charles Mingus, released in 1960. The record draws on hard bop and post-bop idioms with dense ensembles, collective improvisation and pronounced rhythmic drive, and it occupies a transitional place in Mingus's career as he consolidated his compositional approach and ensemble-writing in the early 1960s.
