Miles Davis - My Funny Valentine Sealed (Contains Corner Dents/Small Seam Splits) Original Master Recording Mastering by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab 180g Vinyl Special Limited Edition Mastered on Gain 2 Analog System Track Listing 1. My Funny Valentine 2. All of You 3. Stella By Starlight 4. All Blues 5. I Thought About You
Miles Davis’ My Funny Valentine marks several historic turning points. For Davis, the live album represents the final time on record he’d perform standards rather than original compositions. It also stands as one of the last documents made by the same band that created Seven Steps of Heaven. As such, the work teems with bebop melodicism yet steers clear of Davis’ oft-controversial avant-garde leanings. Most significantly, however, the set captures the ballads performed at a benefit concert from New York’s then-new Philharmonic Hall just months after President Kennedy’s assassination. Tapping into a seemingly divine inspiration, Davis never sounded so elegant or poetic.
