Miles Davis, On the Corner. I never tire of listening to this.

I love that album and the complete "on the corner" CD box set is simply incredible

Have been spinning that set this week and agree. Just too bad that Bob Belden didn't get the permission to put out the 2x4CD sets !

I think the previously unreleased material from the later sessions included in that set is mostly underwhelming. The introduction price was inflated.

What material would have been on those 2x4CD sets, Sidewinder?

There were some alternate takes not included, a meandering jam with Miles Davis on organ, the studio version of a piece they played live during the Sam Morrison era, and a brief snippet of Reggie Lucas playing some howling guitar. I wonder if there was an intent to include some unedited "Calypso Frelimo" segments. There's also a 1976 session with Sam Morrison and Pete Cosey with a disengaged Miles on organ.

It was a revelation to hear the unedited "On the Corner" takes. I always thought there was far more severe editing done on the two long pieces.

Hampton Hawes afternoon here,

The Sermon- 1958 recording , 80s Fantasy "digital issue"

The Green Leaves of Summer- 1964 recording, 70s issue on very thin vinyl

I'm all smiles- 1966 recording , 1973 issue (original?)

I wasn't impressed by Smiles, perhaps the material but it did very little to float my boat , so it goes on the sale pile. The other two were better with Green Leaves perhaps the more interesting. Sermon is more boppish whereas Green Leaves seems more transitional to his later style.
