Additional informationThis is a specially imported limited edition 20-bit digital remaster from Japan. Personnel: Miles Davis (trumpet); Bill Evans (soprano saxophone); Mike Stern (electric guitar); Marcus Miller (bass); Al Foster (drums); Mino Cinelu (percussion). Recorded live at Kix, Boston, Massachusetts on June 27, 1981; Avery Fisher Hall, New York, New York on July 5, 1981; Tokyo, Japan on October 4, 1981. All tracks have been digitally remastered. This 1981 live recoringof legendary jazz trumpeter Miles Davis features a band including Mike Stern on guitar, Marcus Miller on bass and guitar, Al Foster on drums, Bill Evans on saxophones, and Mino Cinelu on percussion. Five tracks in all. Davis's second recording since ending his six-year retirement was one of his best of the 1980s. Unlike his bands from the 1970s, this particular unit leaves plenty of space and plays much more melodically. Guitarist Mike Stern lets loose some fury, but electric bassist Marcus Miller is not reluctant to walk now and then in a straight-ahead fashion, drummer Al Foster and percussionist Mino Cinelu are tasteful, and Bill Evans gets in a few good spots on soprano. As for Davis, he was gradually regaining his earlier form. This double LP is highlighted by "Back Seat Betty," a side-long investigation of "My Man's Gone Now" and two versions of Davis's childlike "Jean Pierre." ~ Scott Yanow
