NTSC/Region 0. This DVD presents one of the only two known examples of Ellington's star trumpeter Cat Anderson collaborating with a Charles Mingus formation. The first such example consisted of two tunes taped live on July 4, 1972 at the Newport Jazz Festival (which changed its location from Rhode Island to New York during that year). The second example is the Berlin concert offered here. ImproJazz.
