Milt Jackson (1923-1999) was an influential American jazz vibraphonist, pianist, composer, and bandleader. He collaborated with a wide range of artists including <en>John Coltrane</en>, <en>Thelonious Monk</en>, <en>Dizzy Gillespie</en>, and many others. Jackson also led his own bands throughout his career.
Born in Detroit, Michigan, Jackson began playing the vibraphone at a young age and quickly gained recognition for his exceptional talent. His unique style combined elements of swing, bebop, and blues, making him one of the most versatile musicians of his time.
In addition to his collaborations with other artists, Jackson recorded numerous albums as a leader. Some of his notable works include "Bags' Groove," "Plenty Plenty Soul," and "Soul Meeting." His virtuosic playing and innovative compositions continue to inspire generations of jazz musicians.

Vibraphonist Milt Jackson was a frequent presence on Blue Note sessions in the bebop era. As part of the fabled 1500 Series begun in 1956, the label issued the 12” compilation Milt Jackson and The Thelonious Monk Quintet which expanded Jackson’s 10” LP Wizard of the Vibes with tracks from 1948 and 1951 dates led by Monk. The album cover was the first designed by Reid Miles.

This Blue Note Classic Vinyl Edition is all-analogue, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original master tapes, and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
