"Bag's Groove" was a hit of the Modern Jazz Quartet.

Here is an All Star Lineup playing "Bag's Grove."

From the You Tune notes:

Milt Jackson - vibraphone
Benny Golson - tenor sax
Art Farmer - trumpet
Ulf Wakenius - guitar
Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen - bass
Jonas Johansen - drums
Kenny Kirkland - piano
Toots Thielemans - harmonica
Max Roach - drums

Milt Jackson's nickname was "Bags" due to the dark circles under his eyes. "Bag's Groove" was a big hit of the Modern Jazz Quartet, or MJQ.

While they were not members of the MJQ, jazz affecionados will recognize jazz giants Benny Golson, Art Farmer, Toots Thielman, and Max Roach.
