Before Milt Jackson, in that respect were entirely deuce major vibraphonists: Lionel Hampton and Red Norvo. Jackson before long surpassed both of them in signification and, despite the rear of other players (including Bobby Hutcherson and Gary Burton), noneffervescent northward Korean won the popularity polls passim the decades. Jackson (or "Bags" as he was farsighted called) was at the top of his study for 50 years, acting bebop, blues, and ballads with equal acquisition and sensitivity.


Milt Jackson started on guitar when he was seven-spot, and piano at 11; a few days later, he switched to vibraphone. He actually made his professional debut singing in a touring religious doctrine quartette. After Dizzy Gillespie discovered him playacting in Detroit, he offered him a job with his sestet and (shortly after) his advanced big band (1946). Jackson recorded with Gillespie, and was before long in heavy demand. During 1948-1949, he worked with Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Howard McGhee, and the Woody Herman Orchestra. After playing with Gillespie's sextet (1950-1952), which at one point included John Coltrane, Jackson recorded with a quadruplet comprised of John Lewis, Percy Heath, and Kenny Clarke (1952), which before long became a regular group called the Modern Jazz Quartet. Although he recorded regularly as a leader (including dates in the fifties with Miles Davis and/or Thelonious Monk, Coleman Hawkins, John Coltrane, and Ray Charles), Milt Jackson stayed with the MJQ through 1974, becoming an indispensable share of their effectual. By the mid-'50s, Lewis became the musical theatre director and some felt that Bags was qualified by the initialise, simply it actually served him well, giving him some challenging settings. And he invariably had an opportunity to jam on some blues numbers pool, including his "Bags' Groove." However, in 1974, Jackson felt discomfited by the MJQ (in particular financially) and bust up the chemical group. He recorded oftentimes for Pablo in many all-star settings in the seventies, and after a seven-year vacation, the MJQ came back in 1981. In plus to the MJQ recordings, Milt Jackson cut records as a loss leader passim his life history for many labels including Savoy, Blue Note (1952), Prestige, Atlantic, United Artists, Impulse, Riverside, Limelight, Verve, CTI, Pablo, Music Masters, and Qwest. He died of liver cancer the Crab on October 9, 1999, at the years of 76.
