Title: The Return of Changes
Product review: Logical continuation of "Changes One", this CD boasts with same musicians: seasoned "Mingusites" Don Pullen, Dannie Richmond and George Adams and the new trumpet of Jack Walrath: a fine bunch of virtuoso musicians.These guys are all great, and there are also few guests on this CD's version of "Duke Ellington's sound of love" (the better version was on "Changes One").Actually, Jackie Paris' vocal spot is the only fault of this CD if you ask me; with the exception of "Better Git it in your soul" style of singing/shouting, all other vocals of Mingus' songs I have heard sound dull and even anti-jazzistic (while Mingus is the essence of jazz if you want my humble opinion).Well, Paris aside, this is another of Mingus classics; I can hardly tell you which is my favourite song since he develops same brilliant and complex set of musical ideas throughout this and many other albums.Well, buy it and see for yourselves...
