Someone pointed out the link between Baroque classical and Jazz. I'd never noticed it, but the MJQ are the new Bach. Check it out! My head has just melted.
I was confused as a teenager, but I knew that the MJQ was who I was. Their music felt right., and I used to stay up nites listening to their music. It always made me happy. Too bad they are gone now...
JckDupp Thanks for this terrific posting. Can't believe there are no comments in favour of this great piece of music. Real class compo and playing-david
@ilkinond Agreed ! I first heard it 52/53 while a PTI in Brit Army !! In fact I was knocked out by all kinds of jazz. Really pleased I never lost the pleasure to this day--keep well-david
Superb performance !
Thanks

I heard them at Columbia University years ago. What an amazing sound. There was no other group like them.
