Shrdlu Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 There's a choice Milt performance on the dailymotion.com site - "For All We Know". That's Milt in top form, with superb backing from Oscar Peterson, NHOP and Martin Drew. There are a few blips in the film, but it's still a listenable copy. Nils-Henning's sensitive bass playing, the timing especially, is a marvel. [i don't usually like Oscar's playing, but he is perfect for Milt.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost of miles Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 Been listening to this one today--a big-band setting for Bags, with nice arrangements by Wilkins and Dameron: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave James Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 The pair of Original Jazz Classics Jackson did with the Count Basie are nice. They're called Milt Jackson + Count Basie + The Big Band Volume 1 & Volume 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillF Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 Been listening to this one today--a big-band setting for Bags, with nice arrangements by Wilkins and Dameron: Thanks for the tip, David. Have bought it. The samples sounded excellent. Wonder how that one got under the radar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrdlu Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Milt's Limelight album, "In a New Setting" is top quality, too. Jimmy Heath once again, plus McCoy Tyner. It makes a nice matchmeet for the "Jazz 'N' Samba" album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 I don't if these are all available but has anyone mentioned Jackson' Ville (Savoy) Bags Meets Wes Savoy also put out several years ago when they were re-issuing a lot of stuff "Early Modern." Well worth it if you can find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonewall15 Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 The Milt Jackson Impulse LP "Memphis Jackson" is terrific. Too bad it has not been reissued on CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegheadjones Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Love Milt. I remember an old LP I had of his with "Ain't Misbahvin'," and thought it listed him as the vocal. Does he sing as well? Anyone know where I might find that track? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad it has not been reissued on CD. I came across an image of the cover of this today, and wasn't sure I'd ever seen it before (not even sure I'd ever heard of it). Looks like it finally came out on CD in Japan in 2011, and again in 2014. Anyway, I'm surprised I don't remember ever seeing it. I guess 1969 wasn't exactly the best time to be releasing something like this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
