Our Take

MILES DAVIS Round About Midnight is like sipping a cup of Earl Grey on a rainy London afternoon - sophisticated, smooth, and leaves you feeling slightly posh. Davis, the king of cool jazz, doesn't disappoint on this iconic album. From the moment the brass kicks in on the opening track, you can't help but sway your hips and snap your fingers like you're in a smoky jazz club in Soho.

Davis' trumpet skills are second to none, effortlessly weaving in and out of intricate melodies with a nonchalant swagger that only a true jazz legend could pull off. The dynamic interplay between Davis and his fellow musicians is a thing of beauty, each instrument contributing its own unique voice to create a harmonious tapestry of sound.

Tracks like "Dear Old Stockholm" and "Bye Bye Blackbird" showcase Davis at his most introspective, while "All of You" and "Tadd's Delight" ramp up the tempo and let Davis' virtuosity shine. The album's title track, "Round About Midnight," is a moody masterpiece that perfectly encapsulates the late-night vibes of the jazz scene.

So grab a glass of your finest scotch, dim the lights, and let MILES DAVIS Round About Midnight serenade you into the early hours of the morning. This is essential listening for any jazz aficionado, and a timeless classic that will never go out of style. Cheers, Miles - you truly are the king of cool.

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.
