Mingus

Album by Joni Mitchell

Mingus is a studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell, released in 1979. The record moves decisively into jazz territory with complex, ensemble-style arrangements and prominent horn and rhythm textures, signalling a departure from her earlier folk and singer-songwriter work toward more jazz-oriented composition in her late-1970s output.
First released: June 1979
