I remember reading a liner note review of this song on a Miles Prestige compllation
album in the 60's,and it stated that critic Leonard Feather played this record for
Charles Mingus in a blindfold test. Mingus thought Dave Schildkraut was Charlie Parker! What a compliment. While every alto player was trying to imitate Bird's
style,Schildkraut was playing Bird's essence on this tune. I don't believe he ever
was able to capture it again on record.But what a compliment Mingus paid him!
This album introduced me to the early Miles albums. I bought a cheap spanish pressing of the lp with a different cover. I was so amazed that i had to go back to the record store and spend a small fortune on Dig, Blue Haze and a compilation of even earlier stuff :D
Solar composed by Miles. listening to this makes me feel i'm back in the the Village in the '50's in an apartment decorated with mid-century modern furnishings -- so-o-o-o-o cool. something from the past that is gone forever. Very romantic feeling in it's own way. it's Miles' minimalist approach to playing, and the sound he produces with the mute.
ah why only why do I have over a hundred miles davis records to choose from. Where do I start...

Dave Schildkraut's play sounds like early Cannonball Adderley too sometimes.

Thanks for the upload.
Why is the audioquality changing at the end, maybe they cut something together from alternate take?
