Miles Davis and John Coltrane were each carrying out their own jazz revolutions at the time these recordings were made, and the electrifying sonic frenzy created by these artists' sometimes competing and sometimes intersecting musical visions has confounded contemporary jazz fans, many of whom were just becoming familiar with the recently released and now iconic Kind of Blue. "A lot happened on and off the stage on this 1960 tour, including powerful, emotionally charged performances where you can hear the band's swinging, disjointed energy and the unfiltered reactions of the European audience. Audience reactions are an integral part of these historic performances," writes Grammy® Award-winning music historian Ashley Kahn in her detailed and insightful notes written specifically for this collection. "Generally, this music is said to represent a great jazz ensemble trying to stick together..... An equally compelling interpretation of the 1960 situation is that Miles and his quintet redefined what a big band could sound like and how much music it could contain - at one time, in one concert, even in one song. It wasn't that the band members were so much separate from each other, but rather that each was more himself or herself within the whole - that the differences could coexist and make music together." The final tour is an essential listen, an invitation to travel back in time and experience the enduring beauty and magic of Miles and Trane at the height of their collective powers. The line-up consists of Miles Davis (trumpet), John Coltrane (tenor sax), Wynton Kelly (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), Jimmy Cobb (drums), who have been performing together since the Kind Of Blue album.
