Description

the most detailed, dynamic, and transparent version of this music that I have ever heard. All of the emotion of Davis horn comes through in ballads, such as the title cut, and details such as the squeak of a chair or the spit on the saxs reed are revealed with an increased clarity. My Vinyl Review, July 26, 2010

A beautiful addition to the Davis canon. Recorded over the course of three days in April 1961, Someday My Prince Will Come showcases Miles second great rhythm section, here at the absolute peak of their telepathic interplay. Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb were as tight a unit as any ever formed, grooving so successfully that they went on to leave Miles and form the Wynton Kelly trio. Someday My Prince Will Come also includes some positively blistering solos from guest John Coltrane in his final recording with Miles. And Hank Mobley offers up some beautiful bluesy solos.

Originally released in 1961. Mastered by George Marino at Sterling Sound.
