The music on this Collectables CD certainly lives up to its title. Vibraphonist Milt Jackson welcomes some of his best musical friends, including both veterans and a couple of younger greats including trumpeter Jon Faddis, trombonist J.J. Johnson, Jimmy Heath on tenor, pianist Cedar Walton , bassist John Clayton and drummer Mickey Roker. Together they perform nine classic songs from the bop era with the emphasis on medium and up-tempo workouts. Few surprises occur but the hard-swinging music largely meets one's expectations. [Bebop was also released with a bonus track.]
