This record is one of my first jazz records that I purchased in Marquette, MI. The selection at the used bookstore up there wasn't always that great, but I did stumble across this. Miles' band pushes the tempo on some classic jazz. This record hints at some of the far out explorations that Miles would do with his next quintet. They play "So What" at 100 MPH. I didn't realize the saxophonist on this is Hank Mobley! I guess you learn something new every day. Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, Jimmy Cobb round out the rhythm section.
Gotta
make some more coffee.
