I just got in from cdjapan the three hybrid SACDs of Miles that Universal just put out (Birth of Cool, Miles Davis Volume 1, Miles Davis Volume 2). Surprisingly they are plper sleeve lp facsimile editions. I'll listen to one or two in the morning.

I've listened to two of these so far and the sound is excellent. IF your system allows SACD to shine I would say these are worth pursuing. CD layer sounds great too, but on my system the SACD is better sounding still.

Curious about how many members caught either/both live.

I was way more into rock bands when Miles last toured and I was a kid when Coltrane died. My parents didn't even have any Brubeck LPs, much less Coltrane. We used to sing along with Mitch Miller.

I was only a teenager in the 60s and wasn’t interested in jazz in those days, not until the late 90s, so never saw them.
