Artikelbeschreibung
The radical discovery by Amir Abdullah of 5 two-track
master tapes in the care of Hermine Brooks – widow of
innovative Detroit drummer Roy Brooks – of the Charles
Mingus Quintet recorded live in Detroit at Strata Concert
Gallery is cause for some serious celebration.
These electrifying recordings took place during Mingus’
week-long residency in February 1973. They were
broadcast live by drummer/producer and broadcaster
Robert “Bud” Spangler for WDET FM – a public radio
station dedicated to jazz – from Kenny and Barbara
Cox’s multi-purpose home for Strata Records at 46
Selden. Entrance to the gig was $5 dollars in advance
and $6 on the door.
By the early Seventies Mingus’ militant musings, volatile
character and hugely innovative musical offerings had
already earned him global notoriety. He’d played with
the Bird, Dizzy, Max Roach, Duke Ellington and had
released universally acclaimed albums as a leader like
‘Blues & Roots’, Oh Yeah’ and ‘Black Saint & The Sinner
Lady’. This gig – one of a Jazz In Detroit series that also
included Keith Jarrett, Tribe and Herbie Hancock – took
place a few months after the release of Mingus’ “third
stream” masterpiece ‘Let My Children Hear Music’.
The music on these tapes is blazing. According to the
late Roy Brooks, the band – which included himself and
fellow Detroit trumpeter Joe Gardner - had not long
returned from playing two tours in Europe. Fresh to the
quintet was stellar pianist Don Pullen and listening to
these recordings Pullen’s church-driven power, blues
sensibility and harmonic sophistication perfectly
complements the bassist’s own vision. On tenor
saxophone we have the soulful and innovative John
Stubblefield. Like Pullen he was a recent recruit.
Unfortunately, the saxophonist’s time with Mingus
lasted a mere 5 months: “I got in a fight with Mingus
and I shouldn't have done that. After that, I couldn't get
arrested in New York." Ironically, when Sue Mingus
formed the Mingus Big Band in 1992, to perpetuate her
husband's legacy, Stubblefield emerged as a talismanic
presence in the ensemble until he passed in 2005.
Thanks to BBE, 180 Proof Records and Strata Records
we can now tune in to WDET-FM and transport
ourselves back to Detroit ’73, and get a taste of the
furious energy and compositional sophistication of a
unique and modern master at work in the most intimate
of settings.
