Miles Davis Quintet 65 68
This Auction is for The Complete Studio Recordings Of The Miles Davis Quintet 1965-June 1968 10 LP Box Set Limited Edition (Out of Print) # 510 of 5,000 in Excellent+/Near Mint Condition.This fabulous sounding 10 LP set cut almost exclusively from original analog master tapes puts into focus a so-called “in between” period for Miles: between the end of the Kind of Blue era and the beginning of the Miles/Shorter/Hancock/Carter/Williams quintet era chronicled on Mosaic's The Complete Studio Recordings of The Miles Davis Quintet 1965-1968. This set finds Miles in transition with the Kelly/Chambers/Cobb rhythm section gone and a changing cast of players, though the material, mostly recorded live, will be familiar to even casual Davis fans.
The albums covered include highs such as the bi-coastal Seven Steps to Heaven, and lows like Quiet Nights a piece of Bossa Nova “product” cobbling together an incomplete orchestral collaboration with Gil Evans and material from the Los Angeles session, part of which became Seven Steps…. But in between are the recordings that introduced the young Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter and Tony Williams to Davis' entourage. Much of this compilation of previously issued and never released material is taken from (well recorded) live recordings, some from radio broadcasts produced in monaural. However, while some has previously been issued in pieces (Miles Davis in Europe), here we get the full June, 27th, 1963 concert recording of the group at the Antibes festival. Since this is a “completist” compilation, there are multiple unreleased takes and false starts along with live material originally issued only in Germany and Japan in 1969 and not in America until 1983.
This was a confusing period for fans of Davis's recorded output. Finally here, we get it all chronologically and in genuine mono where appropriate. We also get the thorough 24-page booklet with annotation, including Bob Blumenthal's appreciative, scholarly and illuminating sessionography, wonderful photos and an outstanding discography.
A great opportunity to own such a rare, out-of-print LIMITED EDITION LP COLLECTION.
