The Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD calls this album an extended tribute to ancestors (and awards it one of their rare crowns), and Minguss musical forebears figure largely throughout.

Charles Mingus debut for Columbia, Mingus Ah Um is a stunning summation of the bassists talents and probably the best reference point for beginners.

While theres also a strong case for The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady as his best work overall, it lacks Ah Ums immediate accessibility and brilliantly sculpted individual tunes.

The band includes longtime Mingus stalwarts already well versed in his music, like saxophonists John Handy, Shafi Hadi, and Booker Ervin; trombonists Jimmy Knepper and Willie Dennis; pianist Horace Parlan; and drummer Dannie Richmond.

Their razor-sharp performances tie together what may well be Mingus greatest, most emotionally varied set of compositions.

At least three became instant classics, starting with the irrepressible spiritual exuberance of signature tune Better Get It in Your Soul, taken in a hard-charging 68 and punctuated by joyous gospel shouts.

The sharply contrasting Fables of Faubus is a savage mockery of segregationist Arkansas governor Orval Faubus, portrayed musically as a bumbling vaudeville clown (the scathing lyrics, censored by skittish executives, can be heard on Charles Mingus Presents Charles Mingus).

The underrated Boogie Stop Shuffle is bursting with aggressive swing, and elsewhere there are tributes to Mingus most revered influences: Open Letter to Duke is inspired by Duke Ellington and Jelly Roll is an idiosyncratic yet affectionate nod to jazzs first great composer, Jelly Roll Morton.

It simply isnt possible to single out one Mingus album as definitive, but Mingus Ah Um comes the closest.
