Beneath The Underdog
I loved this book. I read a lot of jazz biographies, and i have an interest in jazz behind the iron curtain - and this book has enough drugs, prostitution, crime, bigotry, religion, and insanity to Like, apparently, every woman mentioned in these pages, I finished Mingus with equal parts amusement and dissatisfaction. It's sometimes charming, and sometimes annoying - just like the repetitive Charles Mingus.

Somber, comic, disturbing, boastful, confessional, sentimental, contradictory, poetic, irascible, impish…lyrical, nasty, angelic, reflective…expressionistic, picaresque, jive…this is a powerful book.
