I love some Rocafil! 

Time to crank up Sweet Mother.

That one is pretty interesting. The lead track is called 'Polygamy' and discusses the pros and cons of it. Is that the only such song?

Charles Mingus "Tijuana Moods" Classic Records Gold cd

[JSngry]

Favorably reviewed by the 1970 New York Times, where the records he made for MGM are referenced  - and after already seeing them on Discogs, now I want to ask/know...where are they now?

This cover always makes me think it's a Mobile Fidelity record, with a tiny cover inside a black surround. All it's missing is the banner on top.

Back in Chicago in the '70s Helen was a board member of the Jazz Institute of Chicago along with me and a bunch of other folks. Don DeMicheal was the president and brought me aboard.
