@Referentzhunter: You are Right, now I remember it, it was my same Impression on first Hearing. I think one must understand under what circumstances the Album was made, it was just the movie score for that Film Noir. 

For my personal tastes, I also prefer the other records that Miles made during that period, the first quintet, the Prestige and Columbia Albums.

This morning I'm re-listeneing to two I spun yesterday:

The debut release from Miki Yamanaka, a nice pianist with Steve Nelson on vibes.

Grant Green "Carryin' On" Blue Note 80th Anniversary reissue cd

Miki's is a very nice sounding release. I wish I liked Joey Baron more--his work doesn't really thrill me, so I'd have welcomed a different drummer.

The Green is not among his best work but this new mastering has made me appreciate it more. Some nice song choices.

Scott Colley - The Magic Line (Arabesque)
trio with Chris Potter & Bill Stewart

For the decade or so that Arabesque was in the jazz game, they released some outstanding music.

James Moody - Return from Overbrook (Chess)
Compiles two Argo LPs originally released as The Last Train from Overbrook (1958) and Flute 'n the Blues (1956).

Powerfully soulful music.

I finally got around to opening this two cd set that arrived a few weeks back. Nice sound. Great performances.

Arabesque still releases jazz, just not as frequently.  The most recent Arabesque Jazz release was from November of last year.  They have an impressive catalog.

Now playing:

Stone Alliance - Live in Amsterdam: The only Grossman I have and the only recording I have with Don Alias on trap drums.  Fun, muscular stuff.

Oh. I wasn't aware. 

 

BTW: That Stone Alliance disc looks interesting. Have you heard their self-titled debut?

I was listening to this CD last night.  Shortly after dusk, while the sky was still rusty gold, but with darkening tints of blue leading up to the oncoming indigo skies, when the air was still warm, but there was a cooling breeze which stirred the trees, right then is when this version of "Summertime" came on:

One could not have asked for a better soundtrack for that moment in time . . .

one of my favourite Miles records. It´s so great. I think I first got acquainted to it thru the sampler "Greatest Hits" which has "Valentine" and "All Blues". Incredible that fast Version of "All Blues".

Sarah Vaughan is always great , but what I noticed most is the "Heads of State". I have both albums of them, since each of the players, especially Al Foster as one of my favourite drummers, they all are fantastic musicians. I had hoped they will do a third album
