5.0 out of 5 stars Cool Jazz never got cooler, October 2, 2006

This is the apex of cool. Milt Jackson and Frank Wess - vibes and flute are a natural fit and no instruments are cooler than the flute and vibes in the hands of masters. The sad part is the CD is way too short. But if you want a real study of the flute in jazz couple this with Heavy Flute - the cool and the hot. Your CD player will never sound better.

5.0 out of 5 stars bags swings again, October 13, 2000

chuck (Hamilton MT) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Opus De Jazz (Audio CD)

Back when I was a college kid at SF State in the '60's, this was one of my favorite jazz albums. Still is. Glad to see I can replace my old lost disc with a remastered CD. These guys swing. They groove. They are together musically. There are briliant solos altho' this is not a hot licks session album. They make music. It cooks.

Listen to it. Learn something about jazz when it's right. You won't find a clearer statement than this.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best jazz albums ever, July 8, 2000

By A Customer

If you're interested in building up a collection of the best jazz albums, this should be on your list. Milt Jackson is the ultimate vibes player and this is one of his most representative works.
