Milt Jackson Quartet
About the artist
Milt Jackson leads a group that includes two of his cohorts in the Modern Jazz Quartet (Heath and Kay), with the great Horace Silver sitting in place of John Lewis on the piano (at this time Silver was a member of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers). Jackson was clearly skilled in this brass-less setting, and the group decided to lay down some cool jazz tracks that epitomize the sound of that movement in the mid-1950s. The tunes are mellow and fluid, with everyone falling into an easy groove that will move even the most uptight jazz fan.
