Reviews
referencing Town Hall Concert (LP, Album, Mono) 69018
This German press comes in a gatefold using thin paper.
referencing Town Hall Concert (LP, Album, Mono) UAJ 14024
i dont think this record is a gatefold is it?referencing Town Hall Concert (LP, Album, Mono) ULP 1068
You have to wonder why Side 1 of this LP is over 9 minutes shorter than Side 2. Freedom could have been moved to Side 1 and it would still have been shorter. From a program p.o.v. there's no obvious reason for this decision.

I can recommend the stereo version over the mono, at least when it comes to the German pressings. Mono sounds flat and compressed in comparison.
There are some questionable moments in the presentation. Mostly due to proper rehearsal time, and the complexity of the compositions. There is a more recent similar performance at Town Hall that is presented much more smoothly! Mingus became depressed after the first Town Hall performance. Some say the concert effected most of his career. None the less, this is still an important jazz recording by a Master!
