MILES DAVIS: Miles Davis at Carnegie Hall-The Complete Concert (Columbia / Legacy) |
Mastered from the mono master tapes, the reissue contains the complete Carnegie Hall concert as originally performed. At Carnegie Hall finds Miles in what many consider the peak of his career--playing with more aggression and taking more risks than he had in the past. The entire quintet was in fine form. Hank Mobley's performance during this concert is stellar. People inevitably compare him to Coltrane, but his solo on "No Blues" is the stuff legends are made of. Wynton Kelly shines throughout the concert too. Miles Davis at Carnegie Hall has long been a favorite among Miles fans, and rightly so. The performance by everyone involved is great; and while it still has its flaws, it now sounds better than ever. |
