Considered as a greatest hits revisited release, Mingus tinkers with some of his best-known works including their titles yet this time around, he has an 11-piece band ensemble creating significant differences.

II B.S. -- I X love -- Celia -- Mood indigo / Duke Ellington-Irving Mills-Albany Bigard -- Better get hit in yo' soul -- Theme for Lester Young -- Hora decubitus -- Freedom (bonus track not on original LP).
