Early Bebop - Milt Jackson, Howard McGhee and Sonny Stitt 1947-48

Two (or possibly four) sessions with the young boppers, probably aimed at the jukebox market.  Both sessions feature the vibes of Milt Jackson and piano of Will Davis . . the McGhee date for Savoy features the trumpet playing standards and originals with Jimmy Heath on alto and bari and Percy Heath.  The Stitt session features the alto player in Detroit playing a series of very short tracks with Jackson, Davis and a local group but with particularly outstanding saxophone playing! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-clark49/support
