I Never Heard My Music Played The

Everything I Do Is Mingus.

I Am Charles Mingus, Half Black Man, Not Even White Enough To Pass For Nothing But Black. I Am Charles Mingus, A Famed Jazzman, But Not Famed Enough To Make A Living In This Society.

If Charlie Parker Were A Gunslinger, There'd Be A Whole Lot Of Dead Copycats

In My Music, I'm Trying To Play The Truth Of What I Am.

I Always Wanted To Be A Spontaneous Composer.
