Remastering by Ray Staff at Air Mastering,
Lyndhurst Hall, London
'Every track is a gem, the stand out track being
'Django' (recorded many times; is this the
definitive version? I think so). The title track
(written by Ray Brown) is 'Pyramid' (11 min) which
is also a pearl.' ? R. Bawden
With such a tight group as the MJQ is is
impossible to single out individual musicians
which probably accounts for their long lived
success.
'This is a strong recording from the Modern Jazz
Quartet, with inventive versions of John Lewis'
'Vendome,' Ray Brown's 'Pyramid,' Jim Hall's
'Romaine,' and Lewis' famous 'Django,' along with
cooking jams on 'How High the Moon' and 'It Don't
Mean a Thing.' The MJQ had become a jazz
institution by this time, but they never lost
their creative edge, and their performances (even
on the remakes) are quite stimulating,
enthusiastic, and fresh.' ? AllMusic
