"The late Milt Buckner (1915-1977) was a brilliant musician who made important contributions to the development of jazz piano style and the jazz organ tradition. His astonishing technique and ebullient personality impressed and entertained jazz lovers from the late 1920s to 1977. Orphaned in St. Louis at age nine and sent to Detroit for foster care, Milt Buckner's remarkable life story unfolds from early musical studies and playing experiences in Detroit, to success as arranger and pianist with the famous Lionel Hampton Orchestra, and finally to leadership of his own groups and collaboration with major jazz artists in the United States and Europe..."--back cover.
