Miles Davis Sextet Someday My Prince Will Come

180g Vinyl Pressed at RTI!
Remastered by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound!
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.
Recorded within three days in March 1961, this Miles Davis album dates from the same period as "Sketches of Spain". John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderly had recently left the quintet and the rhythm section now consisted only of Wynton Kelly on piano, Paul Chambers on bass and on drums Alternatively Philly Joe Jones and Jimmy Cobb are used. Evil tongues claim that this collaboration with Miles Davis later led her to form the Wynton Kelly Trio.
In addition, Hank Mobley and John Coltrane will be guest musicians on saxophone. Especially Mobley, who offers wonderfully bluesy solos here, has to subordinate himself to band leader Davis. Overall, an excellent album with relaxed jazz from full professionals who don't have to chase a hit.
