Description: This superb fired Edition of the classic Mingus bio Beneath the Underdog tells the story of Mingus's upbringing and the various struggles he endured. It was the first book I read that truly made me understand the struggle that a light skinned African American can suffer even in his own community. Mingus felt he was an outcast everywhere yet went on to become one of the true giants of jazz. His ascent in the music business is legendary and keep in mind, this book was published in 1971. Mingus continued to produce music until his death in 1979.
