DAVIS, MILES

"The music has gotten thick, guys give me tunes and they're fullof chords" declared Miles Davis interviewed on The Jazz Reviewin 1958, and added: "I can't play them...I think a movement injazz is beginning away from the conventional string of chords,and a return to emphasis on melodic rather than harmonicvariation. There will be fewer chords but infinite possibilities asto what to do with them." Miles proved his assertion to be trueon Kind of Blue ( CS-8163), an album that remainsone of the most iconic and influential jazz albums of all time.Bill Evans played on every tune except "Freddie Freeloader"(where he was replaced by Wynton Kelly) and also wrote theoriginal liner notes for the album. John Coltrane and CannonballAdderley shine here, as does the leader himself.*****Down Beat:"This is a remarkable album. Using very simple but effective devices,Miles has constructed an album of extreme beauty and sensitivity.This is the soul of Miles Davis, and it's a beautiful soul." (Don De Michael)
