Miles Davis – San Francisco, CA (03/xx/60)

Miles Davis Sextet
March 1960
San Francisco
USA



From an ACETATE SOUND CLEANED (there were a lot of clicks )

New find: live Miles sextet with Coltrane in SF in March, 1960 right before the legendary quintet Europe tour!
Miles, Coltrane, Buddy Mongomery (vbs), Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, Jimmy Cobb Check it out:

Miles hired Buddy Montgomery for the sextet when Cannonball Adderley left.
The plan was to take him on the Europe tour as well, but Buddy Montgomery was apparently afraid of flying.
This would seem to be the only known recording of the sextet with Montgomery.

halowdance & goody notes
“Amsterdam Concert” is a rare live Miles Davis recording from 1957.
This album, one of the least known recordings of Miles Davis, was recorded at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam on December 8, 1957, a couple of days after the recording of the movie soundtrack “Ascenseur pour l’Èchafaud.” On this concert, Miles didn’t play with his regular quintet, but with the same line-up he used for the recording of “Ascenseur pour l’Èchafaud.” It features Barney Wilen on tenor saxophone, RenÈ Urtreger on piano, Pierre Michelot on bass and Kenny Clarke on drums.

This recording was 20-bit remastered in 2005.

As always, you’ll download also the complete artwork in JPEG format! (However, the track times in this edition do not match up with the ones on the original artwork. – Goody)

Enjoy!

Pitch was approx. 47 cents flat.

ubu note

In addition to the notes above: Miles already performed in Europe in November 1956 with the same trio plus Lester Young and the Modern Jazz Quartet.
He travelled alone, without his band, on both occasions.

losin note

Davis and the RenÈ Urtreger Quartet made this trip to Amsterdam during the otherwise-uninterrupted stay at Club St. Germain in Paris. The Celluloid LP and CD notes do not list either version of “The Theme.”

Miles Davis

February 16 & 23, 1957


Taken from the Bootleg CD: Miles Davis Quintet “Live in Saint Louis 1956”. Actually these shows aren’t from 1956, but from 1957. I checked it on the databases from “Miles Ahead” and ” Kind of Blue”.
Also checked if these shows were officially released. They aren’t, In that way also thanks to the Dime Mods.
I made the MD5 and this textfile and added the tracklist as it is on the CD. Track 1-6 & 13 come from the 1957-02-13 show and tracks 7-12 come from 1957-02-23.
