Fully Improvised

Miles and his band at the time fully improvised this entire recording in a studio while the movie was projected on a big screen. As they watched the movie, the came up with the score on the spot and recorded it in one long session. The Miles Davis doc from Netflix 2020 explained this well. The soundtrack is very fluid as a result
Kudos Andrew Hickey.

I thank Andrew Hickey and "The History of Rock and Roll in 500 Songs" for pointing me toward this in his bonus episode on The Scaffold "Thank You Very Much." Go figure. Marvelous.

Miles does Paris Jazz

By FreshAD

Sultry smoke filled clubs at 2:00AM in Paris in the 1950's played by the masters of melodic and emotive jazz. This is what I want to hear.
A Unfamiliar Classic

By Patrick H.

This album has become one of my most favorite of Miles Davis. It is a classic, surreal and has a touch of European flair. It has a depth that draws you in. Five stars to this classic.
