The record
A Paris session pairing MJQ mainstays Heath and Clarke with a young Barney Wilen, whose tenor brings a French New Wave edge to Jackson's blues-rooted swing. Jackson steps to piano here, trading vibes for keys on this Philips date cut just as Left Bank jazz culture was hitting full stride.
