"A fantastic album originally released in 1957 on Bethlehem. 5 great tracks with Jimmy Knepper, Shafi Hadi, Bill Hardman, Clarence Shaw, Dannie Richmond, Horace Parlan and Bob Hammer. Featuring the incredible 'Scenes In The City' with the narration about a guy from Harlem and his relationship to jazz (it shows what jazz can mean to someone who's not basically a musician but who 'lives on the music' a lot).

Title:
Tonight At Noon
Label:
WATER
Format:
CD
Price:
$15.00
Catalog #:
WATER 129CD
"Despite the scattered recording history of the five tracks that comprise this album (two separate sessions -- one from 1957, the other four years later -- were used), the result is pretty cohesive. It took another three years before the actual album was released in 1964. Mingus and his steady backing crew (the same musicians that supported him on the eminent
The Clown
and
Oh Yeah
respectively) chart some rarely explored stylistic territory. The later date features the more refined, and characteristic, songs of the bunch; the 1957 session races around Eurocentric rhythms for a feeling of rushed exuberance. It's hardcore jazz at its most celebratory, with master Mingus up front leading the charge."
