...Mingus? The only post-1970 Mingus I've ever heard is "Me, Myself, an Eye", which is a pretty terrible record and sounds nothing like #4. The lines do sound very Mingus-like when I think about it. I have no idea who the players are, I guess Jack Walrath could be in there on trumpet. Tough ones, these last 4.

Follow Ups:
Yes it's Mingus and it is Jack Walrath. Yeah, a lot of players. This is a pretty good post 1970 Mingus. He did a couple of decent things post-1970.
....Rick's Gonsalves comment made sense to me, and the band sound is more like Duke's than anyone else I can think of. Could these be unusual choices from Mercer's band?
dh
No, not Gonsalves, not Mercer's band. I'll stick them on this site and also on my Forum site because there is frustration rearing it's ugly head. You, Duane, will laugh at me because it's not someone who you would think I would "champion".I guess I am devious!
...that this might be Buddy's band, but I thought not even you could be that evil. It's him isn't it? I see that Shep guessed the arranger correctly as Ernie Wilkins (another Detroiter!). Not sure what albums these would be from, but I almost thought Buddy on drums here and there, though the vocabulary is more like Bellson.

I'll put the some other info on in a separate post here and all of it on my forum site.
Just ask my wife. Har har har.....
