Also performing on Milt Jackson's album were Herbie Hancock (piano), Freddie Hubbard (trumpet and flugelhorn), Ron Carter (bass) and Billy Cobham (drums) ... all big names in the jazz scene. Of course, Jackson was playing his vibraharp.
Side 1: For Someone I Love, What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life?
Side 2: People Make The World Go Round, Sunflower
Jackson was a key member of the Modern Jazz Quartet, together with John Lewis (piano), Percy Heath (bass) and Connie Kay (drums). The album, European Concert, was recorded during the group's tour of Scandinavia in April 1960. So this album is half a century old!
