This pressing is absolutely phenomenal. Rich, dynamic, punchy. Purchased used on Discogs to replace my problematic MOV pressing of Mingus Ah Um, and this not only beats it in every way, but you get the bonus of a great pressing of Mingus Dynasty as well. If you ever see one in a bargain bin, don't hesitate.
