I'm not sure if it's blasphemous, but this was the first Mingus LP I ever purchased.
  Wed. 12/15/10 12:31pm ?:

  Wed. 12/15/10 12:38pm northguineahills:

Well, I suppose, it would be considered such among "jazz" purists..
  Wed. 12/15/10 12:39pm 37:

jazz (like country music) embraces all... (imho)
  Wed. 12/15/10 12:41pm ?:
