THE JACKIE McLEAN QUINTENT
Featuring DONALD BYRD
JUBILEE JLP-1064
Original deep groove blue and silver label
A very rare early outing by the great alto saxophone player Jackie McLean with Donald Byrd, Mal Waldron, Douglas Watkins and Ronald Tucker.
Vinyl is in excellent condition – just played it on my Rega Planar 2 turntable and it sounds great. Cover – front is shiny and shows only minimal wear, back is very clean.
From my extensive collection of Jazz lps, cared for carefully over the years and kept in a vinyl sleeve.
Packed carefully (with lp outside of sleeve), and shipped promptly.
Happy Bidding!
Review “Altoist Jackie McLean made his recording debut as a leader with this album when he was 24. He is here in full command of his musical gifts and plays with a lot of guts, drive, heated emotion, and a good beat. On these early days Jackie’s concept and playing still reflected a strong Bird-influence, but he was not far from finding his own style and voice. This set is certainly worth hearing, and the presence of trumpeter Donald Byrd, another young lion, is definitely a plus. Listening to these sides we can understand why Byrd and McLean later became major jazz voices.”
