My favorite Miles Quintet ever, and yes that includes the one with Coltrane, Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, and Jimmy Cobb.

Pastorius said...

If I am not mistaken, Tony Williams was 17 when this was recorded.

Pastorius said...

How'd you like Dirty Day, MR?

Pasto -- I have it scheduled to post in a couple weeks :)

MR,
No actually I was saying that my favorite Miles Quintet ever is this one, with Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams, and Miles himself.

That's the best Jazz ever, in my opinion.

Even Zawinul, Pastorius and the like never reached the heights the Miles mid-60's quintet reached.

Pastorius -- no no. I mean I have Dirty Day scheduled to post. On what would have been my dad's birthday.

I understood the quintet comment.

Pastorius said...

Oh, cool.

Yeah, I've been thinking about my Dad a lot lately.

I'm like him more so now that they've put him in the ground ...
