Davis, Miles: Milestones
CD, Columbia 1991 (1958)
Track list: Dr. Jekyll - Sid's Ahead - Two Bass Hit - Miles - Billy Boy - Straight, No Chaser
Milestones features Miles Davis Sextet, full of very talented musicians. Therefore it's no wonder they get the songs swinging very nicely. Tunes differ from each other a lot, most notable being "Billy Boy" with it's clinking piano. Two of the six songs are written by Miles. Wonderful playing (for example some very nice bowed bass), good songs, great swing, what else do you want? ****
Six Months Later:
I like Miles Davis' work and Milestones doesn't make an exception. Thoroughly recommended for fans of creative music. ****
