MILES DAVIS
1963 war Miles Davis in einer Übergangsperiode seiner Karriere, ohne
eine feste Band, und er fragte sich, wie seine zukünftige musikalische
Ausrichtung aussehen könnte. In jener Zeit nahm er die Musik auf, die
auf dieser Platte zu hören ist. Er war dabei, eine neue Band zu gründen,
wie man an der Besetzung sehen kann: George Coleman, Tenorsaxophon;
Victor Feldman (der den Job ablehnte) und Herbie Hancock am Klavier; Ron
Carter, Bassist; Frank Butler und Tony Williams am Schlagzeug.
Aufgenommen wurde in zwei Sessions, mit Highlights wie dem klassischen
"Seven Steps To Heaven“, "Joshua“ und langsamen, leidenschaftlichen
Versionen von "Basin Street Blues“ und "Baby Won't You Please Come
Home“.
In 1963, Miles Davis was at a transitional point in his career,
without a regular group and wondering what his future musical direction
would be. At the time he recorded the music heard on this disc, he was
in the process of forming a new band, as can be seen from the personnel:
tenor saxophonist George Coleman, Victor Feldman (who turned down the
job) and Herbie Hancock on pianos, bassist Ron Carter, and Frank Butler
and Tony Williams on drums. Recorded at two separate sessions, this set
is highlighted by the classic "Seven Steps To Heaven", "Joshua" and slow
passionate versions of "Basin Street Blues" and "Baby Won't You Please
Come Home".
