Capturing the huge passions of Mingus' music is, for most musicians and writers, an impossible quest. By bearing her heart, Sue Graham Mingus, widower by way of the Midwestern debutante trail and keeper of his glowing flame, does just that. In gripping detail, Mingus traces what Paul Simon called the arch of a love affair. From their first meeting at the Five Spot in July '64 to the scattering of his ashes in the Ganges some fifteen years later, Mingus puts you right there amid the music and the Mexican madness of seeking a cure for his Lou Gehrig's Disease. For those of you who want their musical history in more than sterilized, Prozac-laced, VH1 sound bytes, here's one for you.For those of you who want their musical history in more than sterilized, Prozac-laced, VH1 sound bytes, here's one for you.
