Release Notes:

Le modern Jazz Quartet, ensemble americain de jazz,
forme en 1952 par John Aaron Lewis, fut l'un des
groupes les plus subtils, les plus raffines du cool
jazz.

The Modern Jazz Quartet's staying power was unique
in the history of modern jazz. From 1952 the MJQ
persisted and prospered for more than four decades
playing in a restrained conservative bebop style
that survived the onslaught of hard bop, rock 'n'
roll, free jazz, hard rock, acid rock and any other
musical fashion that made inroads into popular
music culture during the last 50 years. 17 prime
cuts are served up on this CD with the first 9
featuring the line-up of Milt Jackson, John Lewis,
Percy Heath and Kenny Clarke. The remaining 8
tracks from 1955 features Connie Kay who had
replaced Clarke on drums. This is the perfect
starter for those interested in modern jazz and the
part the MJQ played in its formative stages.
Proper. 2006.
