Rating: - Great stuff!
Somethin' Else: Remastered

Quite by chance I caught just three or four bars of the theme of "Autumn Leaves" on the radio. It was so obviously Miles, and at his very best. I immediately decided, on the basis of that brief snatch of melody, to try to get the CD. But it was not easy to run it down as, of course, the band was under the (nominal) leadership of Cannonball Adderley.

This is a wonderful CD with all players on top form and I heartily endorse what other reviewers ... Read More

Rating: - Essential for your collection
One of the favourite CD's in my collection, this record is right up there with the best. Cannonball may be the leader, but Miles is absolutely superb. He plays the tunes like they belong to him and really inspires the band. The thing that impresses me most is Autumn Leaves. Seeing such a common tune on the track listing one thinks 'Oh not again!', but when Miles comes in with the tune, you have to smile with delight - HE'S THAT GOOD! Don't miss out on this great music.

Rating: - The greatest of all the Blue Notes?
This was very much a collaborative effort between Cannonball Adderley and the master himself, Miles Davis, in a rare guest appearance.

Miles is, if anything, more dominant on this album than his own.
The beautiful opener 'Autumn Leaves',one of the truly great jazz recordings, is an example of this, as Miles takes three solos to Adderley's one, playing the theme ... Read More

Rating: - Flawless, sublime, the finest jazz album I know
One of my first jazz purchases, and the album against which I measure all others: and usually find wanting!

I picked up at random in the store, and it has become my jazz conversion album -- the one I buy for people who don't see why I love jazz.

A very close second to this album for me is Miles Davis, Kind of Blue.

I challenge you to not love this CD. "Autumn Leaves" alone will melt the hardest hard.

Rating: - The best Miles of the mid fifties and a great band
A suberb mix of the introverted cool thoughtful Miles Davis and the extravert swing of Cannonball Adderley.
Everyone plays perfectly and you would think this was a well established unit, not a one off studio recording.
Each track is a beauty - no fillers or duds.
