During the last 2 weeks I have listened to a lot of Miles Davis records. 

This is one of my early favourits. I heard the title tune on a sampler when I was a Boy and it´s that tune that made me listen to jazz. 

And Sid´s Ahead is a great after Hours Blues, Coltrane is fantastic on this one. 

I only think that the trio tune "Billy Boy" could have been omitted. Otherwise I really love Red Garland, with his light tough and his Trademark chords, but on this silly tune he really sounds like he overdoes it and bangs them chords in a manner that´s not really typical for him. 

But then Comes that medium tempo "Straight No Chaser" which is Beautiful...….

 Bob Brookmeyer is primarily known as a valve trombone player and composer/arranger. I have long enjoyed his piano playing. This is his only recording as leader of a Piano Trio, and I consider it a very good one. He did a duo piano album with Bill Evans, and has played piano on a few tunes with Gerry Mulligan , Jimmy Raney and Teddy Charles. His piano playing reminds me a bit of the way Jimmy Rowles approaches the instrument.
