180g Black Vinyl. Comes in a sleeve finished with linen laminate. Recorded live at the Philharmonic Hall at Lincoln Center, New York, February 12, 1964. Featuring Herbie Hancock, George Coleman, Ron Carter and Tony Williams. Recorded at the same Feb. 12, 1964 New York concert that yielded the more balladic album My Funny Valentine, Four & More showcases the Miles Davis quintet at their blistering best. The great trumpeter and bandleader (1926-1991), and his stellar group, which was less than a year old at the time of this recording, mostly essayed tempos that ranged from Indianapolis 500 to Bonneville Salt Flats. Offering a well-balanced, albeit reconfigured, repertoire featuring the familiar hard-bop strains of "Four" and "Walkin', " newer, original free bop compositions like "Joshua" and "Seven Steps To Heaven, " and the standard "There Is No Greater Love, " which the ensemble performed relatively infrequently and is the only tune herein not taken at a supersonic pace, the quintet electrified a sold out Philharmonic Hall. Spurred on consistently by the mercurial rhythm section of pianist Herbie Hancock (23 years old at the time), bassist Ron Carter (then 26), and especially by the cross rhythms of 18-year old genius drummer Tony Williams, Davis' work, particularly in the upper register, was seldom more commanding. As for his front line partner, tenor saxophonist George Coleman, Davis would write in his autobiography that he "played better that night than I ever heard him play."
