I met Miles Davis when I was 13 years old at Birdland in NYC. He was there with his historic sextet with John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley. This album is half with all star small group and half orchestra ala Gil Evans concentrating on Miles work in the 50s that changed jazz and my life. My good friend Chick Corea was a great sounding board while recording this album which is heartwarming as he worked so much with Miles. I opened the album with this Harry Warren song “This Heart Of Mine”.
