this tune puts a smile on my face

@agmart100 You do realize when Miles wrote this composition and the circumstances of the time musically, right? Maybe this rendition was slower than Miles' original tempo, but I still feel the perpetuity of the tune. And the phrasing is similar considering that many of the same musicians of that original cut are here in this video. So what am I missing, what wasn't proper? No argument, just curious.

The way this song was played is too laid back... its a miles davis style its supposed to be more of a progressive moving song... not that it was bad but it was just not in proper style in my opinion

[coatlecue]

a whole flotilla of brass just to emulate a song that only had about 6 pieces? never the less very nice,elegent. a right lot of seasoned fellows too.

This swings so hard.

I wish someone would post a video breaking down all the individual parts. I've been trying to break down the parts by ear but it's not working.

Does ANYONE know what setup Gerry Mulligan used????????

[hueman17]

And Art STILL plays flat...

Cleo Henry was Miles's mother. Miles and Gil used her name because Miles wanted to use a different publishing house than the one he was contractually obligated to at the time the tune was written.
