East Coasting is a 1957 album by the legendary bassist and composer Charles Mingus. It is particularly notable for being the only studio collaboration between Mingus and the influential pianist Bill Evans.
While Mingus is often celebrated for his wild, soulful, and avant-garde compositions, East Coasting is considered relatively mellow and accessible by comparison.
