Notas del disco

Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that is creativity.
Charles MingusMainliner, July 1977
In my music, I'm trying to play the truth of what I am. The reason it's difficult is because I'm changing all the time.
Charles Mingusto Nat Hentoff, in California Rock, California Sound, 1979
Let my children have music! Let them hear live music. Not noise.
Charles MingusLiner notes, Let My Children Hear Music, 1971
