Even though Michel Legrand is most famous as a film composer, his LP Legrand Jazz (Columbia CS-8079) is a true jazz classic. To record it, Legrand took eleven iconic jazz tunes and arranged them for three different groups of superb jazzmen. The big names on this album include Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Ben Webster, Herbie Mann, Art Farmer, Donald Byrd, Bill Evans, and Hank Jones, among others. Throughout this superlative album, the arrangements are colorful and unusual, making one wish that Legrand had recorded more jazz albums through the years. Miles’ classic collaboration with vibraphonist Milt Jackson, Miles Davis-Milt Jackson Quintet/Sextet (Prestige PRLP-7034), has been added here in its entirety as a bonus
