So nice to know that some of us remember when jazz could still be spelled with a capital J.

absolutely fantastic - been trying to find this track since 1983. milt jackson has got to be one of the top musicians of the century

There was a soundtrack album too: I think this is the same take? Superb.

I think the MJQ is simply the coolest most cerebral group around , no one could swing like these guys !

This tune by MJQ has haunted me since I first heard it in the 1960's. Brilliant. A couple of years ago I was in Central Park New York and the music came flooding back to me. I don't know what it is about it but I love it. By-the-way, in the 1960's I lived in the slums of Greenock in Scotland. This music lifted me out of it. Thanks MJQ.

This is part of the soundtrack music for Odds Against Tomorrow, and excellent film from the late fifties starring Robert Ryan, Harry Belafonte and Ed Begley.

Music to which to make love.



Not certain, but according to the Internet Movie Data Base (IMDB) the soundtrack to that movie is by John Lewis of the MJQ
