Some of you guys are hip to this music but so many who aren't. What a shame music has been deleted in the schools. Then people would be able to listen from knowing the elements of the game. Everyone knows the rules of football but music, not so much. Keep looking and listening. It just doesn't get any better than this.

Among the many things I love about this session is hearing/seeing Miles on flugelhorn. He didn't use it often but always to great effect. And what arrangements!! So thankful we have this to enjoy.

This recording was my first contact with MD, back around 1982. It was played on the same day as many other Jazz and blues documentaries. It was called `Jazz on a Summer`s Day` and included the film of the same name. Watching this stayed with me and was very important in shaping me. We are so fortunate to have these old reels but it has degraded due to lossy sharing unfortunately. Still incredible.

Another thing that is important about this vid is that it appears that these tunes and arrangements were not recorded anywhere else. So the solos are an insight into Miles development. Compare to the original recording and you can figure out what's written and improvised. Paul's bass parts were largely written for this album but there was room for him to stretch here and there. Now this is a Music Video!! This is on my desert island list. Hey, where's the rest of this???

@funkality In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Davis recorded a series of albums with Gil Evans, often playing flugelhorn as well as trumpet. The first, Miles Ahead (1957), showcased his playing with a jazz big band and a horn section arranged by Evans. Songs included Dave Brubeck's "The Duke," as well as Léo Delibes's "The Maids of Cadiz," the first piece of European classical music Davis ever recorded.

@funkality Sessions with Davis and Evans in 1962 resulted in the album Quiet Nights, a short collection of bossa novas that was released against the wishes of both artists: Evans stated it was only half an album, and blamed the record company; Davis blamed producer Teo Macero, whom he didn't speak to for more than two years. This was the last time Evans and Davis made a full album together; despite the professional separation, however, Davis noted later that "my best friend" is Gil Evans.

yea, it's a half step sharp, probably because of a slow machine when copying...you can find it on DVD, and I think the intonation is correct. It's also not sync-ed up properly, so the musicians looks very relaxed, and behind the beat...but it's still killing, of course. Get the vinyl version if you can.

That's Fly Gangster right there.
Thank you so much. Has any known artist used that type again?? There was in the German church brass assembles a KUHLO horn, wider than a cornet(bore wise) but not as wide as the Fluegelhorn. PS Yamaha makes olso rotary valve Fluegelhorns!
That drummer Kenny Clarke has one tall order!
@SirJazz I believe that the tuba player is ray Draper. He was murdered outside of a gig he was playing tragic He made an album with Coltrane called a tuba jazz very good

Look closely and you will John Coltrane on Alto sax. There's Paul Chambers on Bass, Jimmy Cobb on Drums, Wynton Kelly on Piano, Julius Watkins on French Horn, Ernie Royal and Johnny Coles on Trumpets. I'm not sure who are the rest.

Well this was a once opon a time for jazz, american music, and black music. I have all of the records including those like this video arranged by gil evans. I note wiht considerable dissapointment that yet again (even on the lp liner notes) there is no listing or credits given to the musicians who recorded this beautiful music. The albums were from columbia. who were the side men? do you know? thank you david cox
Miles on the mellower flugelhorn...on "The Duke"
Please can anybody tell me more about the strange cornet,part fluegelhorn, a bit like a piccolo.what is it.
I'm sure Gil Evans would be the first to agree with you. He's no Duke Ellington but who was?? Gil made some great music and his very fine ear for giving Miles a platform was beautiful for American music and music overall.
Amazing music. What happened? Diddy, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilash?
There is a version of So What that you speak of on youtube... And I know of the 1964 version..
very good comment. i think it is important to de-mystify the people and try to see what really happened.
@jozzej got to know Coltrane Cobb and Chambers. All regulars at one point with Miles band.
@jamilkayin That's true!
