At Newport 1958 by Miles Davis.
Miles Davis at his creative peak, pushing musicians to explore what they don't know.
Musical Analysis:
Miles Davis leads with distinctive artistry, creating intricate interplay between musicians. The harmonic progressions and rhythm section showcase the evolution of jazz with spontaneous brilliance.
Album Story:
Miles Davis's electrifying performance at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival captured a pivotal moment, as his sextet was transitioning between classic bebop and the modal jazz that would define his next era. The live recording features an all-star lineup including John Coltrane on tenor sax, Cannonball Adderley on alto sax, and Bill Evans on piano, marking one of their few recorded festival appearances together. Columbia Records' team captured the historic set despite challenging outdoor recording conditions, preserving standout versions of "Bye Bye Blackbird" and "Fran-Dance" that demonstrated Davis's evolving trumpet style and the group's remarkable interplay.
