Miles Ahead

When Downbeat reviewed Miles Ahead in 1957, the magazine awarded five stars and commented: "This is an extraordinarily well done album with absolutely no point that you can wish for more. Miles' solos throughout have an almost ascetic purity about them." But Miles was delighted by a more personal assessment. In his autobiography he remembered: "After Miles Ahead Ahead ame out, Dizzy (Gillespie) came by one day to see me and asked for another copy of the record because he had played his so much he had worn it out in three weeks." Enjoy this incredible LP including "Springville", "New Rhumba" and "My Ship".
