  • Description

    Upon his unexpected success at the 1955 Newport Jazz Festival, Miles Davis (who had recently overcome his drug addiction) found himself again in the limelight. He received a tempting offer to join the major label Columbia Records. In order to move to that label, Miles had to fulfill his previous contract with Prestige. For that reason he entered the studios with his Quintet to cut a couple of marathon sessions that produced a wealth of material which was subsequently issued on a number of classic albums.

    Among the best of them were "Relaxin'" with the Miles Davis Quintet (Prestige LP7129) and "Cookin'" with the Miles Davis Quintet (Prestige LP7094). Both LPs are presented here in their entireties and feature the all-star formation showcasing John Coltrane on tenor sax and Red Garland on piano.
