Perhaps the greatest jazz bassist of all time. An extremely influential and original composer as well.
Known for his legendary temper earning him the nickname "The Angry Man of Jazz." Mingus vented his frustration over racial injustice through public protest and occasionally musically. A great example being his brilliant "Fables of Faubus", a biting satire of sorts about the racist Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus.
He died in 1979 at age 56 of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig's disease.
If you're just getting into Mingus, I highly recommend his classic 1959 album Mingus Ah Um. It's not only one of my favorite jazz albums but his most accessible work.

Bruce Lee: Jaco Pastorius is an absolute master and I dig his music, but Charles Mingus sucks me in more with his soulful sound.
Jose Contreras: Agreed, he's a more interesting composer. And what a fascinating motherfucker too.

1. A girl of alarmingly small stature; she is always short and, in practically every case very skinny as well.
Not only does she have these inadmirable traits but, in addition, she always acts fiesty and quite often is an annoying bitch.
Maret School President, and perhaps the most respected man when it comes to these matters, woo, recently expressed his sentiments on squabble snakes in an interview with Time Magazine, stating "when i see a squabble snake i usually like to keep my distance, however, when they are extra annoying, i sometimes need to act out of character a little bit and tear their clothing off and inflict pain."
