Last 48 Hours of Kickstarter campaign for Mingus on Mingus

I have written already about this project and if you haven't seen the post I hope you've noticed the widget on the left top corner. I will let the author of the project speak for himself in the video, watch and, if you agree with me that it is a good idea, support it.

Mingus on Mingus - Kickstarter Campaign

If you are visiting this blog, you probably have heard Charles Mingus's music. One of the greatest bass players in the history of jazz, one of its premier composers and band leaders also, a true innovator. A legendary, charismatic figure on and off the stage.

Mingus on Mingus project on kickstarter's goal is to gather funds to make possible a production of a documentary - Charles's grandson's attempt to preserve Mingus's Legacy before those who can tell his story are gone. I invite you to see the video below and support the project as much as you can.
