Contains the complete original album Sketches Of Spain, the third collaboration between Miles Davis and Gil Evans (following Miles Ahead and Porgy and Bess). As a bonus to this masterpiece, we have included three other tunes previously recorded by Miles, on which the Spanish feeling is also evident and which, in a sense, foreshadow the making of Sketches Of Spain.\n\n\nAmazon.ca\n\n\nMiles Davis's impact on jazz is almost incalculable. From his early days as a sideman for Charlie Parker, through his groundbreaking\nBirth of the Cool sessions, to his stunning small groups of the '50s and '60s, through to his electric renaissance, the trumpeter, bandleader, and composer has left a deep mark on all who came after. He is one of jazz's true giants.\nSketches of Spain, though one of Davis's most commercially successful sessions, is also one of his most controversial. Re-teaming with arranger and composer Gil Evans, who played such a pivotal role in Davis's 1949\nBirth of the Cool recordings, Davis recorded a series of large group albums beginning in the late '50s, including\nPorgy and Bess,\nMiles Ahead, and\nQuiet Nights.\nSketches of Spain, with its emphasis on flamenco, rich orchestrations, and relaxed tempos, is certainly one of Davis's most mellow recordings (he even works out on fluegelhorn), and proved to have broad appeal. To some critics, however, the project was \"elevated elevator music.\" An expanded version of the album, featuring alternative tracks and unreleased material, was issued in 1997 by Columbia Legacy.\n--Fred Goodman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 074646514269\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0074646514269\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45941509193762,"sku":"JC-NHL5-KD4N","price":12.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51_1uQpITjL.jpg?v=1783602496","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/products\/miles-davis-sketches-of-spain-cd-used","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
