3-CD SET – 10-PANEL DIGIPACK BOX-SET
INCLUDES 3 BONUS TRACKS
Miles Davis (1926-1991) and Bill Evans (1929-1980) were two of the major luminaries in jazz history. During 1958 and 1959, Evans was the pianist of Miles’ quintet and sextet, which produced some of the most memorable music Bof all time. This compiles all of their studio master takes, as well as all of their surviving live recordings together.
Included on this 3-CD set are the complete immortal albums «Kind of Blue», «At Newport», and «Jazz at the Plaza», plus all of their tracks together from Legrand Jazz and Jazz Track, and two rare radio broadcasts that complete their collaborative discography.
A further broadcast by the Miles Davis Sextet from the same period, featuring Red Garland on piano instead of Evans, has been added here as a bonus.
