MINGUS PLAYS PIANO - Recorded 60 years ago on July 30, 1963

“Listen to Charles Mingus as a pianist — for the first time — on record. He is uniquely himself, as this album demonstrates, playing with an impressive range of expressive power. Mingus has developed a personal piano style that expresses the more gentle, the more reflective and the more innocent elements of his personality.” - Nat Hentoff, from the original liner notes of Mingus Plays Piano

"This is not like playing at home.” - Charles Mingus
