About This Item
New York: Creed Taylor, Inc.,, 1973. First pressing, signed cleanly and in full by Jackson in black ballpoint on the back cover. This is a lapidary "with strings" date, that sets Bags against lush backdrops by Grammy Award-winning arranger Don Sebesky, who played trombone with the Maynard Ferguson and Stan Kenton bands. Freddie Hubbard's burnished flugeling adds lustre to the proceedings. The core band here is Miles alumni Herbie Hancock (keyboards), and Ron Carter (bass); Billy Cobham occupies the drum stool. "Recorded over two days in December of 1972 at Rudy Van Gelder's Englewood, New Jersey, home studio, vibraphonist Milt Jackson's Sunflower is the first - and best - of his three albums for Creed Taylor's CTI imprint. (And one of the finest offerings on the label.)... While Sunflower sometimes feels more like a group session rather than a Jackson-led one, that's part of its exquisite beauty" (Tom Jurek at AllMusic website). 12-inch vinyl LP (CTI 6024), new plain white inner sleeve (original inner also preserved), original gatefold album cover. Just a suggestion of shelfwear to cover otherwise in excellent condition, as is the disc. Discogs website.
