Our Take

Miles Davis, the jazz legend himself, takes us on a musical journey through time with the release of "Quintet Live In Berlin 1969 (+3 Bonus Tracks)". This album oozes with creativity and spontaneity, capturing the quintet at the peak of their performance prowess.

From the opening notes of "Directions" to the mesmerizing solos on "Miles Runs The Voodoo Down", Davis and his band deliver a masterclass in improvisation and innovation. The chemistry between the musicians is undeniable, with Wayne Shorter's saxophone soaring to new heights and Chick Corea's piano adding layers of complexity to each composition.

But it's not all serious jazz business here - tracks like "Paraphernalia" and "Footprints" bring a sense of playfulness and wit to the mix, showing that even the most revered musicians can let loose and have fun on stage.

The bonus tracks included on this release offer a glimpse into the band's creative process, with extended versions of "No Blues" and "I Fall In Love Too Easily" showcasing the group's ability to push boundaries and experiment with their sound.

Overall, "Quintet Live In Berlin 1969" is a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast looking to experience the magic of Miles Davis and his band in their prime. So grab your beret, pour yourself a glass of fine wine, and let the music take you on a wild ride through the streets of Berlin circa 1969. Cheers!

About the artist

Miles Davis Quintet

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.
