Tijuana Moods is an album by Charles Mingus, recorded in 1957 but not released until June 1962.[1][2][3] It was reissued in 1986 on CD as New Tijuana Moods with four additional alternate takes and as a double LP with five alternate takes. Two-CD expanded versions with further alternate takes were issued by RCA in 2000 and by Columbia in 2010.

In his notes to the 1986 reissue, Ed Michel said that "[h]ardly anything was recorded as a complete take" and so both the originally issued takes and the alternate versions had been assembled by editing additional sections into base takes.[4]

The name "Charlie Mingus" appears on the cover of the original album. Mingus hated all nicknames derived from Charles ("Don't call me Charlie; that's not a man's name, that's a name for a horse"[5]).
