Overview
The actual sessions had taken place in June 1953, December 1954, and January 1955, and (as Prestige Records had yet to enter the 12-inch LP era) were first released on two 10-inch albums, entitled Modern Jazz Quartet (PRLP 160, 1953, whose second side contained `The Queen`s Fancy`, `Delauney`s Dilemma`, `Autumn In New York` and `But Not For Me`) and The Modern Jazz Quartet, Vol. 2 (PRLP 170, 1955, containing `Django`, `One Bass Hit`, `Milano` and `La Ronde Suite`).[1][2] The first session took place in New York, but the eventual Hackensack, New Jersey sessions were engineered by Rudy Van Gelder; the whole album was reissued in 2006 as part of the Rudy Van Gelder Remasters collection.

`Django` (like the other original material on the album) was composed by the group`s pianist and musical director, John Lewis. It is one of his best-known compositions, written in memory of the Belgian gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt. One other apostrophic tune is `Delauney`s Dilemma`, a jaunty tribute to the French jazz critic Charles Delaunay. The lengthy `La Ronde Suite`, with discrete sections emphasizing each group member`s contributions, is in fact a version of the standard `Two Bass Hit`, written by Lewis for Dizzy Gillespie and recorded by, among others, Miles Davis on Milestones. Gillespie`s own tune, `One Bass Hit`, is also included as a feature for bassist Percy Heath.

Vibraphonist Milt `Bags` Jackson can be heard grunting and humming throughout the quieter numbers, which include renditions of the Gershwins` `But Not For Me` and the Vernon Duke standard `Autumn In New York`.
