Landmark Recording on Double LP!
Remastered from Original Full-Track Mono Tape Sources by Michael Graves!
Lacquers Cut by Jeff Powell!

Any list of the greatest jazz artists of all time includes the legendary Charles Mingus. Bassist, composer, outspoken jazz pioneer, Mingus was an innovator whose legacy continues to inspire us. Over a 100 years after his birth year, we still celebrate his genius.

In conjunction with the Charles Mingus Estate, Candid Records is proud to present Mingus at Monterey for official reissue.

This tour de force live performance from the 1964 Monterey Jazz Festival captures Mingus at the top of his form and the height of his powers. Out of print for more than 40 years, this landmark recording was originally released on Mingus' own short-lived mail-order label. It has consistently been the most requested reissue by Mingus fans.

This 2 LP disc set has been remastered by five-time Grammy Award Winning Engineer Michael Graves, with lacquers cut by Jeff Powell. Original gatefold jacket artwork has been meticulously restored and reproduced.

Producers Note: The original release of this historic Mingus performance, though labeled "Balanced Stereo," was actually recorded and issued in mono. For this definitive remaster, we worked exclusively from original full-track mono tape sources discovered in the archives. Multiple Grammy Award-winning engineer Michael Graves helmed the remastering process, utilizing the legendary ATR 104 tape machine equipped with a state-of-the-art Flux Magnetics full-track head. This careful restoration brings unprecedented clarity and depth to these vital recordings while maintaining their original monophonic integrity.
