  1. (It's unfortunate that the recording of Bags' Groove is from 1985 and keeps Bags' vibes kind of in the background...ah well. He's still killing it.)

  6. The Modern Jazz Quartet - The Montreux Years

    Recordings of late-period MJQ concerts from Montreux, ranging from 1985-1993.

    All very good, as you'd expect from these incredible pros, and well recorded, although imaging and relative instrument focus/balance can change track-to-track.

    (Some of the sharper transients, especially on Blues in A Minor, clearly show the limitations of the Beogram 4000, as opposed to the Rega NAIA.)

  11. The Modern Jazz Quartet - The Last Concert

    Spoiler alert: it wasn't the last concert. But they didn't get back together until 1981 after they broke up in 1974, and then continued until Bags' death in 1999.

    They're playing like it's for the last time, recapping many of their classics with lots of energy and verve. Avery Fisher Hall is a great venue, too, and the recording is excellent.

    A must-have.

  16. The Modern Jazz Quartet at the Music Inn, Volume 1

    This 1956 LP (vintage) didn't quite escape unharmed, with mold issues and some tracking damage from previous plays on bad equipment.

    But - the music, recorded in Lenox, Mass, shines through anyway. Volume 1 features Jimmy Giuffre on clarinet on some tracks, whereas volume 2 features Sonny Rollins.

  26. The Modern Jazz Quartet - Fontessa

    This was MJQ's first outing for Atlantic, and really enjoyable. Good sound from the vibes, but not great piano recording. The playing, however, is, as expected, great.

    1956, but not from my Dad's collection - an early mono pressing found in the bins for short money. Cleaned up OK, but not stellar.

  31. Now spinning at my house, a cool oddity:

    Space, by #TheModernJazzQuartet...wherein these jazz legends on piano, vibes, bass & drums released a 1969 album on #AppleRecords, courtesy of #TheBeatles! Perhaps more cosmic in places than usual, it still swings & enchants with elegance

  36. La famosissima Aria sulla Quarta Corda (Air for G string) di #BACH #BWV1068 reinterpretata in chiave Jazz da #TheSwingleSingers, #TheModernJazzQuartet

    ALBUM
    Aria de la Suite orchestrale en ré majeur, BWV 1068

    Mi commuovo sempre nel risentirla.

    Il brano in #Italia è conosciuto soprattutto perché fu scelto come sigla del programma televisivo #Rai chiamato #Quark e poi #SuperQuark di #PieroAngela
