Reception

The Allmusic review by Bob Rusch awarded the album 4 stars stating "This session has interest as an example of Milt Jackson's mid-'50s work in a non-Modern Jazz Quartet context. And despite the many critical assertions that the vibist was restrained by pianist John Lewis' direction, his playing here revealed no marked change".[2]

Personnel

gollark: I don't think it's a very good idea, internet connections generally aren't that fast and reliable.
gollark: IIRC they also constrain virtualization somewhat?
gollark: That is *a* thing. You only get 6 simultaneous streams or something.
gollark: TSMC say stuff won't be resolved until 2023.
gollark: DG1 is quite meh, but they're doing other things eventually™.
