Japanese Edition with Obi Strip.
The collaboration between Miles Davis and Gil Evans is highly regarded as one of the greatest in jazz history. Miles and Gil, who knew each other from the 1940s through sessions like "Birth of the Cool," showcased their exquisite chemistry on "Miles Ahead" in 1957 and "Porgy and Bess" in 1958.
Building on this experience, this album was recorded as their third collaboration for Columbia in 1959-1960. Miles was showing a strong interest in Spanish music at the time. While this tendency could be seen in "Kind of Blue," recorded shortly before this album, here he tackles Spanish music head-on. Track <1>, which runs over 16 minutes, is the highlight of the album, a reinterpretation of a popular piece by Spanish composer Rodrigo with Gil's innovative orchestration. It's a masterpiece where Miles delivers a solo against Gil's characteristically deep sound, making extensive use of woodwinds. Tracks <3>, <4>, and <5> are Gil's original compositions based on Spanish themes, and they are also superb performances. (Shoji Ichikawa)
