Workin' With
Miles Davis
Miles Davis' first classic quintet was formed in
1955 and is widely regarded as one of the greatest
combos in jazz history. Workin' was the third in a
series of four albums featuring the group recorded
between May and October of 1956. The program
presents some tunes the quintet had been playing
live, along with others that appear to have been
improvised on the spot and which had never been
previously recorded. Two short readings of "The
Theme" were used to close the two sides of the
original LP. Miles had recorded a longer version of
the tune for his previous album The New Miles Davis
Quintet. "Trane's Blues" is an improvised blues by
John Coltrane, and "Ahmad's Blues" is a tune by
pianist Ahmad Jamal, for whom Miles repeatedly
expressed his admiration.
