About Milt Jackson

Milt Jackson, affectionately known as "Bags," was a pioneering American jazz vibraphonist whose career spanned over three decades, leaving an indelible mark on the genre. Born into a musical family in Detroit, Jackson's journey began with a deep appreciation for various instruments before settling on the vibraphone, which he mastered with a unique, vocal-like quality. He is best known for his work with the Modern Jazz Quartet, a group he co-founded and with which he achieved international acclaim for their blend of cool jazz and classical influences. However, Jackson's versatility extended far beyond this ensemble. He collaborated with jazz legends such as Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane, contributing to both hard bop and post-bop movements. His discography is a treasure trove of innovative compositions and electrifying performances, showcasing his virtuosity, taste, and versatility. Jackson's influence as a NEA Jazz Master and a pioneer of bebop and cool jazz continues to inspire musicians and fans alike, making him a true icon in the world of jazz.
