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. - 3 BONUS TRACKS //W/24PG. BOOKLET /INTENSIVE LINER NOTES
Digitally remastered and expanded edition. Contains the complete original album Sketches of Spain, the third collaboration between Miles Davis and Gil Evans (following Miles Ahead and Porgy and Bess). As a bonus to this masterpiece, we have included three other tunes previously recorded by Miles, on which the Spanish feeling is also evident and which, in a sense, foreshadow the making of Sketches of Spain.
Track 1, recorded November 20, 1959 in New York. Tracks 2-6, recorded March 10, 1960 in New York. Tracks 7-8, recorded May 6 & 23, 1957 in New York. Track 9, recorded April 22, 1959 in New York.

Is this even jazz Sketches of Spain was perhaps the first Miles Davis album to inspire this question, though it certainly wouldn't be the last. Origi...

NOTE: Most musicologists agree that 1959 was to jazz what 1967 was to rock 'n' roll (and, subsequently, music-milestone marketing). For whatever reaso...
