Retail Miles Smiles— Miles Davis

Product Name: Retail Miles Smiles— Miles Davis
I believe this is an early 70s issue. Jacket has some wear on spine (as pictured, and some slight bubbling along the left side, but is otherwise clean and intact. Vinyl is a VG++. I cleaned and play-tested this, and it sounds amazing: crisp, dynamic, airy, with tons of retail detail. This is one of my all-time favorite jazz albums from one of the best bands. Herbie, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams, and Ron Carter all play like geniuses, and the music really pushes against the barricade. You can hear the influence of Ornette here—not just in the freedom from utility, but in the cracked expressive tone. I alway thought this album was much darker and more complex than its cover and title suggest.
