Several people have played this record lately . . so I pulled mine out, and I had, frankly, forgotten just how good it was.

Listening to MJQ - The Modern Jazz Quartet - The Last Concert

Recorded live in concert at Avery Fisher Hall

Milt Jackson - Vibes
John Lewis - Piano
Percy Heath - Bass
Connie Kay - Drums

And, as I type this, they are playing the best rendition of Gershwin's Summertime I have ever heard. Fantastic - worth the price of the whole album by itself.

This is a two LP Atlantic gatefold set, recorded in 1974 and the performances and sound quality are superb. If you don't have this one, you need to get it!

I found this somewhere deep in my collection:

Dizzy Gillespie, Sarah Vaughan & Charlie 'Bird' Parker



Great music of course, but the sound is really dreadful.
I have other CDs with some of these tracks which are so much better.
This one is leaving!
