The record
The whole quartet is documented here: John Lewis (2) at the piano and credited as music director, Milt Jackson on vibraphone, Percy Heath on bass, Kenny Clarke on drums. Two sides on shellac, Prestige 851, 1953 -- 'Vendome' backed with 'Rose Of The Rio Grande'. The music-director credit is the telling one; somebody was shaping these two sides.
