Mingus Ah Um
[ Sony Jazz / CD ]
Release Date: Monday 8 February 1999
Mingus Ah Um is a studio album by American jazz musician Charles Mingus, released in October 1959 by Columbia Records. It was his first album recorded for Columbia. The cover features a painting by S. Neil Fujita. The title is a corruption of an imaginary Latin declension. It is common for Latin students to memorize Latin adjectives by first saying the masculine nominative (usually ending in "-us"), then the feminine nominative ("-a"), and finally the neuter nominative singular ("-um"). The album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2013. (Wiki)
