| What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). |

| MJQ / Modern Jazz Quartet | |
| You know what we don't hear enough of? Vibraphone, that's what we don't hear enough of. And what better way to get your Minimum Daily Requirement of vibraphone than with the exquisite playing of Milt Jackson and the very early Modern Jazz Quartet. This recording from the early 50s includes two incarnations of MJQ: both the more famous quartet and a five piece ensemble Jackson put together from three original MJQ members and a couple of new performers. All eight tracks are chock full of vibraphony goodness. |
