Miles Davis – Doo-Bop (1992/2011)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/192 kHz | Time – 43:44 minutes | 1,77 GB | Genre: Jazz
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Rhino – Warner Records

Miles Davis’s last studio project is an adventurous collision of jazz and hip-hop.

If On the Corner suggested hip-hop beats as far back as two decades ago, then consider Doo-Bop as offspring. Miles’ teaming with producer Easy Mo Bee is a natural — more in league with England’s acid jazz scene than anything in the trumpeter’s recent canon. Those who’ve howled over the post-Bitches Brew work will find no solace here; instead, chalk this up as one of Miles’ most entertaining efforts.

Miles Davis – Dig (1956/2016)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/192 kHz | Time – 35:01 minutes | 715 MB | Genre: Jazz
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Prestige

Recorded in one day in October 1951, these tracks allowed Miles Davis and Sonny Rollins to stretch out together like they had never done in the studio before, delivering fluid solos with warmth and emotion. The rest of the musicians on this pivotal session are equally praiseworthy: a teenage Jackie McLean on alto sax on most songs, pianist Walter Bishop and bassist Tommy Porter, all held together by the explosive drive of drummer Art Blakey.

Miles Davis – Collectors’ Items (1956/2016)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/192 kHz | Time – 43:34 minutes | 898 MB | Genre: Jazz
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Prestige

Any 1950s Miles Davis recording could easily be called a “collector’s item,” but these selections have special claims to this description. The first four offer Charlie Parker in his only recordings in support of Miles, who had begun his disc career as Bird’s sideman. The last four feature a unique Davis/Mingus encounter. In between is Miles just before launching his first great Quintet, heading two groups loaded with top talent of the “post-bop” period.

Recorded on January 30, 1953 (1-4) WOR Studios, New York City and March 16, 1956 (5-7) at Van Gelder Studio in Hackensack, NJ.

Amandla was Miles’ perfect departure from Tutu, and a comeback for himself and his right-hand man, the composer Marcus Miller. The album features investigations into the possibilities of contemporary synthesizers and drum machines. But unlike Tutu, Miles and Miller supply a satisfactory amount of real orchestral instrumentation, real drums, percussion and guitars.
