Miles Davis Newbe Question

Charles 1 dad,

'You go to my head', from the Complete Blue Note and Pacific Jazz recordings...marvelous.
Thank goodness all that beautiful work was captured.
I could only wish that the great Winston Ma of First Impressions Music, would get hold of these and 'remaster ' the whole lot, using his 'magic'.

Wow...what a thought!

Ck, tell us what you've listened to that you liked the most including sidemen with Miles and we can realy help you. While some of the very best jazz musicians have been mentioned, many have been left out.

OK,
Ck, what about it? You done any listening to these industry giants, saints?

WOW! Last night I'm cruisin' Netflix and found 'Miles Davis: Cool Jazz Sound'. A film described as feat. Miles and his classic quintet: Coltrane, Cobb, Kelly, & Chambers. Imagine my surprise to find that it's actually that band PLUS Gil Evans and a Big Band! Unfortunately, it's too short at 25 minutes. Apparently, this is a tape from a TV show recorded in '59. Playing music from 'Miles Ahead', the audio/video certainly isn't anywhere near modern standards, but the MUSIC!!

....and then there's this, from the AUDIOPHILE perspective (this IS an Audio site!;). The session was recorded live in a large Manhatten studio, try to picture this configuration/seating arrangement. Picture a football, at the head is Miles with his band directly behind him, down the left side are the brass, down the right side saxes and woodwinds, and at the other end of the 'football', facing Miles is Gil Evans conducting the orchestra! Imagine what it must've sounded like to Miles, talk about the 'sweet' spot!!

All,

Sorry for not following up as I thought the thread went inactive a long time ago! I have been listening to Love Songs and Kind of Blue. Any suggestions what to try next?
