| Note | In April 1964 Mingus went to Europe with one of his greatest bands
featuring Eric Dolphy on alto sax, bass clarinet and flute, Johnny Coles on trumpet, Clifford Jordan on tenor sax, Jaki Byard on piano and Dannie Richmond on drums. Part of the repertoire was first "rehearsed" in front of the Town Hall audience in New York before the band left the United States to play their first concert in Amsterdam's Concertgebouw. After a week of touring the sextet was suddenly reduced to quintet when Coles collapsed on stage during the performance of 'So Long Eric' on April 17 in Paris. |

*** Notes on recording(s) of this date: REVENGE is not a bootleg. It is in itself a commercial release of an often bootlegged show, by trading the commercial release, people are taking money from the estate of Mingus. * The Jazz Workshop label was Mingus' own, which he started when he was still alive so he could release his own music. * More on information on the release at: http://www.mingusmingusmingus.com/noboot/revenge.html *** |
