Round About Midnight
Miles Davis
Miles Davis' quintet was formed in 1955 and is widely
regarded as one of the greatest combos in jazz history.
Each of its members were individual creative forces
that could have easily been leaders. "Philly Joe and
Red Garland were the same age," explained Miles in
his autobiography, "about three years older than I was.
Coltrane and I were born in the same year, with me
being a little older. Paul Chambers was the baby in
the group, being only twenty, but he was playing like
he had been around forever. And so was Red; he was
giving me that Ahmad Jamal light touch, and a little bit
of Erroll Garner, along with his own shit up in all of that.
So everything was happening." This quintet--like many
other great bands composed of important figures--
didn't last long despite Miles' best attempts to keep it
together. 'Round About Midnight was Miles' first album
for this company, and he titled it after the Thelonious
Monk tune that had earned him such great success
at Newport in 1955. Two songs from the sessions
originally issued on LP compilations have been added
as a bonus.
