Miles Davis (May 26, 1926-September 28, 1991) was one of the most important and influential figures in jazz history. His career, which spanned nearly fifty years, covers jazz history throughout the second half of the Twentieth Century and was marked by his constant evolution and his search for new artistic goals. With equal passion, Davis participated in bebop, cool and modal jazz, and later, in the formation of hardbop and the fusion of jazz with rock & roll. The sound of his trumpet–completely identifiable given his use of the Harmon mute–gave him a personal and intimate feeling, a soft and melodious sound, which frequently led to lyricism and introspection. Some of his most brilliant studio performances, taken from 12 of his best albums,can be found on this LP, which includes works with small groups (featuring such costarsas John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley, Bill Evans or Horace Silver), and also a couple of examples of his immortal collaborations with the Gil Evans orchestra.
