Our Take

MILES DAVIS Miles Ahead / Steamin' With The Miles Davis Quintet

Two Miles Davis classics rolled into one? Count us in! Miles Ahead and Steamin' showcase the legendary trumpeter at the top of his game with two distinct vibes.

Miles Ahead takes the listener on a smooth, melodic journey with its lush orchestrations and innovative arrangements. Davis effortlessly weaves in and out of complex harmonies, leaving us in awe of his musical genius. Tracks like "Springsville" and "Miles Ahead" ooze sophistication and style, making this album a must-have for any jazz enthusiast.

On the flip side, Steamin' brings the fire with its hard-swinging energy and raw improvisational talent. The Miles Davis Quintet - featuring legends like John Coltrane and Red Garland - is a force to be reckoned with. Tracks like "Surrey With The Fringe On Top" and "Diane" showcase the group's tight-knit chemistry and bold musical choices.

Overall, this double album is a treat for the ears and a testament to Miles Davis' diverse talents. Whether you're in the mood for cool, breezy vibes or hot, intense grooves, Miles Ahead / Steamin' has got you covered. So sit back, relax, and let the music take you on a journey through the mind of a true jazz legend. Miles Davis, we salute you.

About the artist

Miles Davis

MILES DAVIS: The Jazz Maverick With his smooth trumpet melodies and innovative approach to music, Miles Davis has left an indelible mark on the world of jazz. Born in 1926 in Illinois, Davis began his musical journey at a young age, studying at the Juilliard School in New York City before launching his illustrious career. Known for his cool demeanor and distinct sound, Davis quickly rose to fame in the 1950s and 60s with albums like "Kind of Blue" and "Bitches Brew." His experimental style, blending elements of classical, rock, and funk with jazz, pushed the boundaries of the genre and earned him a legion of devoted fans. Davis was not one to shy away from controversy, whether it was his bold fashion choices or his willingness to collaborate with artists from all walks of life. He was a trendsetter in every sense of the word, constantly pushing the envelope and challenging the status quo. Despite his tumultuous personal life and battles with addiction, Davis continued to create music that resonated with audiences around the world. His legacy lives on through his extensive discography and the countless musicians he influenced along the way. Miles Davis may have left us in 1991, but his music remains as timeless and relevant as ever. He was a true visionary in every sense of the word, and his impact on the world of music will never be forgotten. Raise a glass to the jazz maverick, Miles Davis.
