“This is an extraordinarily well done album with absolutely no point at which
you can wish for more. Miles' solos throughout have an almost ascetic purity
about them. They are deliberate, unhurried, and almost inevitable in their
time. On Miles Ahead he comes bouncing and skipping in almost as through
he were the legendary Piper, dancing his way along leading everyone.”
