The record
A ten-inch Blue Note compilation drawing on more than one session: the credits carry Thelonious Monk and John Lewis at the piano, Lou Donaldson and Sahib Shihab on altos, Al McKibbon and Percy Heath on bass, and both Art Blakey and Kenny Clarke at the drums, all of it built around Milt Jackson's vibes. 'Bags' Groove,' 'Criss Cross' and 'Eronel' are the pull.
