John Lewis on piano, Milt Jackson on vibraphone, Percy Heath on double bass and Connie Kay on percussion. "Integration " was the key word used by Lewis all his life to describe MJQ: finding a balance between intellect and emotion, between the language of form of the European classic tradition and the eloquent tradition of the "black" Blues from the USA.
Recorded October 28, 1957 NDR Studio, Hannover.
