Description: | Miles Davis and Gil Evans collaborated on high-concept projects three different times during their celebrated careers. For their final act, they created Sketches of Spain, a peak moment in each luminaryâ??s legacy. The transformative album weds Spanish themes, lush orchestrations, romantic timbres, and Davisâ?? increasingly lyrical methods in a tender ceremony that resonates more than six decades after its original release in 1960. Seldom, if ever, did Davis ever so expressively and liberally paint with color. And in Evans, he has a likewise-minded partner to help draw out tones, shades, layers, and textures. What they achieved continues to draw praise from the global music community. Ranked #358 on Rolling Stoneâ??s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and deemed â??a work of unparalleled grace and lyricismâ? by noted scribe J.D. Considine, the
Grammy Award-winning effort has never sounded or looked better. - 180-Gram Limited Edition. Sketches of Spain was Miles Davis and Gil Evans' third conceptual album (they had worked together back in the late 1940s on the celebrated "Birth of the Cool" nonet sessions and would record their first conceptual LP Miles Ahead in 1957, followed by their adaptation of George Gershwin's music for Porgy and Bess in 1958). The trumpeter stated in his autobiography that the whole thing came out of listening to Spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez".
