A masterpiece that shines in jazz history, released in 1957! [Miles Davis 100th Birthday Anniversary - Japan Exclusive Project] This is his memorable first album after moving to COLUMBIA in the US, and a monumental album on par with "Kind of Blue". Miles' muted trumpet thunders at the beginning, making this a masterpiece that shines brilliantly in jazz history. "It can be said that the legend of Miles, the emperor of jazz, began with this album - Kazunori Harada". This album is noteworthy for capturing the moment when the talents of renowned musicians such as John Coltrane and Red Garland, who were still relatively unknown at the time, began to blossom. Disc 1 begins with Thelonious Monk's "Round Midnight" and features a selection of Miles Davis's repertoire from that era, including Charlie Parker's "Ah, Lew, Cha," Cole Porter's "All of You," and Tadd Dameron's "Tad's Delight." Produced by George Avacian, Disc 2 contains recordings from the Newport Jazz Festival (Voice of America) #1 on July 17, 1955, and a live performance in Pasadena on February 18, 1956.
