Sorcerer, the third album by the second Miles Davis Quintet, is in a sense a transitional album, choosing to explore cerebral tonal colourings.
Even when the tempo picks up, as it does on the title track, there's little of the dense, manic energy on Miles Smiles -- this is about subtle shadings, even when the compositions are as memorable as Tony Williams' "Pee Wee" or Herbie Hancock's “The Sorcerer."
As such, it's a little elusive, since it represents the deepening of the band's music as they choose to explore different territory.
The emphasis is as much on complex, interweaving chords and a coolly relaxed sound as it is on sheer improvisation, though each member tears off thoroughly compelling solos.
Still, the individual flights aren't placed at the forefront the way they were on the two predecessors -- it all merges together, pointing toward the dense soundscapes of Miles' later '60s work.
It's such a layered, intriguing work that the final cut, recorded in 1962 with Bob Dorough on vocals, is a jarring, inappropriate way to end the record, even if it's intended as a tribute to Miles' then-girlfriend (later, his wife), Cicely Tyson (whose image graces the cover).

Side 1:
Prince Of Darkness (6:27)
Pee Wee (4:49)
Masqualero (8:53
The Sorcerer (5:10)
Side 2:
Limbo (7:13)
Vonetta (5:36)
Nothing Like You (1:55)

LABELS: NEAR MINT
Clean, unmarked labels with barely a spindle trace to be seen
VINYL Visual: VERY GOOD+
Both surfaces display brush marks/hairlines but most of these are in-vinyl pressing blemishes and none of these marks have any audible significance
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT+
Plays beautifully throughout with a crisp, clear *MONO* cut - an odd one-off tick/touch of low-level background noted - nothing major
SLEEVE: VERY GOOD+
Deep gloss to the front laminate - some grubby marks to the white back and soft creasing to the top corner - again, nothing major
