Double Bass Mingus' Music

[jazzy bass man]

Does anybody know if there is a collection of Charles Mingus' music?

Specifically I am looking for Fables of Faubus, NOstolgia in Times Square.
Also does anyone know what the changes are to Hatian Fight Song (II BS) are. Somebody I know thinks they're loose blues changes but I don't know.

Thanks

There was just a discussion about the "Charles Mingus: More than a Fake Book". I believe it has all of the songs you are talking about.

This is the only record I know of that has all the tunes you asked about, It's with the mingus big Band, not Mingus himself

There are also Box sets available, if you want recordings of the man himself.

Nostalgia is on Wonderland, which is an absolutely great record (if you have trouble finding it try iTunes). I totally recommend More than a Fake Book as a great source for Mingus music, the photos and text are great as well.
