I got this for Chrismas. 

It´s a shame I didn´t know this record until now. It was recorded about the same time as "Black Saint..." but it has more already known stuff, like the Theme For Lester Young, and Hora Decubitus actually is "E´s flat A´s flat too" from "Blues and Roots" and the first tune II.B.S. actually is "Haitian Fight Song". 

What a wonderful album, great arrangements, and I X Love is a wonderful ballad that I already knew with another title from "Town Hall Concert". 

And what a great version of "Mood Indigo", with some of the best bass solo work of Mingus. Anyway, besides his immense role as a composer, Mingus for me is the greatest bassist of his generation. 

The CD has a bonus track "Freedom" which is much better than the one on "Town Hall".

I´m so glad I got this record.....

Sorry, Referentzhunter, I'm not the right person to ask.  I just have an Impulse CD from years ago -- cardboard digipack, U.S. issue. 

There may be better-sounding issues out there.  I dunno.  ... I'm just talking about the music.

Someone with a better quality system and better hearing should be able to advise you. 

All I know about Impulse releases is that you should AVOID their first-generation CDs.  They're awful.  Even someone like me, who isn't really an "audiophile," can hear that they are NOT good.  Otherwise, I couldn't ever tell much difference between them.

Maybe that helps?
