Mid-fifties Mingus. The album Pithecanthropus Erectus is considered by some to be the first "real" Mingus, in which his characteristic traits as an arranger are first fully realized by his band. In this case the impressions of London traffic sounds blend with the musical performance in an interesting and deliberately rough way. Not at all rough is the flawless swing in every beat.
