Description:

Track Selection is from the stage play “Guys and Dolls”, with excellent solo’s from Coltrane and Garland. Solid bop, happy music. For anyone preferring a more intellectual analysis, wiki suggests ” it emphasizes the Miles Davis’ concentrated ballad-style playing with his medium-register trumpet”

The record includes snippets of studio conversation which add a nice touch. A performance by a group of people, recorded by another group of people, ao it could be listened to by yet another group of people. Frozen for all time on record, a piece of history for our enjoyment..

There was a spate of  Miles albums recorded between May and October,1956, whose titles all contain the essential street-talk n-apostrophe: Steamin’, Cookin’, Relaxin’, an’ Workin’. . Miles is happy whichever you prefer.
