Oh Yeah is a studio album by the American jazz musician and composer Charles Mingus. It was released in April 1962 through Atlantic Records.[1] [2] [3] It was recorded in 1961, and features Mingus playing piano rather than his usual upright bass, and also singing on three songs.
All compositions by Charles Mingus.
The 1999 Rhino CD reissue included three additional tracks recorded at the same session (and previously released on Tonight at Noon in 1964):
The 1988 Atlantic CD reissue included only one additional track, a 24-minute excerpt of an interview with Mingus conducted by Nesuhi Ertegün which was discovered in 1987. The full 77-minute interview appears as a bonus disc on the box set Passions of a Man: the Complete Atlantic Recordings (1956-1961).
