Charles Mingus
Revenge! The Legendary Paris Concerts
Album US 1996 on Revenge! Records label
Jazz (Hard-Bop)
Recorded at the Salle Wagram in Paris on April 17, 1964. From the booklet: The concert at the Salle Wagram should not be confused with a second concert the following day, Saturday, April 18, at the Theatre Champs-Elysee (which started after midnight and is often dated Sunday, April 19th.) That second concert was released in the US on LP by Prestige/Fantasy under the title The Great Concert Of Charles Mingus in the mid-seventies. The release caused some confusion by adding one track from the first concert at the Salle Wagram and then compounding the confusion by mistitling the track. Although the piece was Mingus' farewell song to Eric Dolphy, "So Long Eric," it was for some unfathomable reason given the title of one of Mingus' best known compositions, "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat." Manufactured and Distributed by M.S. Distributing Co. ℗ 1996 Jazz Workshop Inc. © 1996 32 Records. The tracks of this release can be also found on the 1980s grey market releases Meditation and Live In Paris 1964 Vol. 2.
