Miles Davis Sketches of Spain

2015 Sony Legacy Stereo Edition 180g Vinyl Import LP!
Stunning 1967 concept piece arranged & conducted by Gil Evans.
The most luxuriant and stridently romantic of all of Davis' recordings, Sketches of Spain pairs Davis with arranger and composer Gil Evans, with whom he had collaborated on several other projects, on a program of compositions largely derived from the Spanish folk tradition. Recorded between November 1959 and March 1960 - after Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley had left the band - the album features performances by Paul Chambers, Jimmy Cobb and Elvin Jones.
