In His Own Words: Charles Mingus - Beneath The Underdog (1971)
“I am Charles Mingus. Half-black man. Yellow man. Half-yellow. Not even yellow, nor white enough to pass for nothing but black and not too light enough to be called white. Charles Mingus is a musician. Mongrel musician who plays beautiful. Who plays ugly. Who plays lovely. Who plays masculine. Who plays feminine. Who plays music. Who plays all sounds: Loud, soft, unheard sounds. Sounds, sounds, sounds. Solid sounds. Sounds, sounds. A musician who just loves to play with sound.”
