Miles Davis

Ascenseur Pour L’échafaud - 2026 Reissue

Decca Records France

First released in 1958 by Fontana in Europe and Columbia in America, never had a soundtrack contributed as much to the fame of a film. The contradictory accounts of Miles Davis’ creation of the soundtrack have all become part of its legend. Rarely has a soundtrack been so decisive. Close to seven decades on, beyond the myth, this taut, feverish recording, imbued with extreme dramatic tension, remains one of the most iconic soundtracks in our catalogue — and one of the only jazz soundtracks which was entirely improvised.

Miles Davis

Birth Of The Cool (Tone Poet Series)

Blue Note

Miles Davis’ earliest masterpiece, Birth Of The Cool, gets the royal treatment in celebration of the legendary trumpeter’s Centennial. Following his trial-by-fire tenure in the Charlie Parker Quintet in the mid-1940s, Davis emerged with bolstered confidence and a creative hunger to explore new directions.

A regular gathering of like-minded musicians at arranger Gil Evans’ Manhattan apartment provided the workshop at which the Miles Davis Nonet was born, and in 1949–50 Davis led three seminal sessions for Capitol Records that documented this exciting new music with a cast of collaborators including Gerry Mulligan, Lee Konitz, J.J. Johnson, Kai Winding, John Lewis, Max Roach, Kenny Clarke, and others.

The nonet featured a unique instrumentation with French horn and tuba to create new textures influenced by impressionist classical music that inspired lyrical improvisations by the band’s soloists on arrangements of pieces by Davis, Evans, Mulligan, Lewis, Denzil Best, Bud Powell, Johnny Mercer, and more.

Miles Davis

Lady Be Good: Live In Europe With The Birdland All-Stars (RSD26 EDITION)

Unique Jazz

THIS IS A RECORD STORE DAY 2026 EXCLUSIVE LIMITED TO ONE PER PERSON.

The 1956 Europen sessions with Miles Davis and the Birdland All Stars lineup (with Lester Young and MJQ) see their 70th anniversary. New and exclusive vinyl only pressings will be available for RSD26 on heavweight colour edition gatefold LPs. Miles Davis broke up his ‘First Great Quintet’ in 1956 as a consequence of John Coltrane’s severe heroin addiction. Miles, having recovered from his own addiction, fired Coltrane and drummer Philly Joe Jones in March 1956 due to their struggles with the drug. At the same time Miles was struggling with the racial tensions and prejudice he suffered in the U.S., as well as his growing infamy and bad reputation domestically. Miles had previously toured Paris in 1949 and relished the experience of performing in front of a more accepting audience. In order to advance his career and enjoy some respite from his turbulent home, Miles accepted an offer to tour Europe with a new group of musicians. They were named the ‘Birdland All Stars’, and included Lester Young, the Modern Jazz Quartet, and many other top-tier jazzmen. These recordings are the only ones in history to feature both Miles and Lester, and took place over several concerts from the tour.

'Round About Midnight (Mono) - 2026 Reissue

Music On Vinyl

In 1955 Miles Davis played an all-star jam session at the Newport Jazz Festival with Thelonious Monk on piano, Gerry Mulligan on baritone sax and Zoot Sims on tenor sax. This performance immediately drew the attention of Columbia Records' George Avakian, who was so impressed that he immediately offered Davis a contract if he could form a regular band. The group he then assembled would go down in history as Davis' so-called "First Great Quintet", consisting of John Coltrane on tenor sax, Red Garland on piano, Philly Joe Jones on drums, Paul Chambers on bass and of course Miles himself on trumpet. 'Round About Midnight is Miles Davis' first record for Columbia and also the first studio recording of the First Great Quintet. The recording sessions began on October 26 1955 but the album wasn't released until 1957 as Davis was still under contract at Prestige at the time. These respective sessions yielded Steamin', Workin', Cookin' and Relaxin'; albums that would go down in history as quintessential blueprints of late 1950s hard bop. The record is made up of a collection of standards and one traditional song ("Dear Old Stockholm", from the 19th century). Notably, it features what may be considered the most well-known versions of Thelonious Monk's "'Round Midnight" and "Bye Bye Blackbird". That Avakian made a golden signing was sufficiently clear from the start, but no one could foresee that it would be this quintet on Columbia that would go on to change the course of modern jazz forever with Kind of Blue.

Miles Davis' quintet with John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones was formed in 1955 and is widely regarded as one of the greatest combos in jazz history. Like its followers Steamin', Workin' and Relaxin', Cookin' is the product of two massively productive recording sessions during May and October of 1956, which ended his obligations with Prestige Records.

"Miles' peculiar blend of pure melody and acidulous accents never has sounded better. This is one of the best LPs of the year."- ***** Ralph J. Gleason, DownBeat

3 Shades Of Blue : Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans & The Lost Empire Of Cool

Canongate Books

1959 saw Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans and the other members of Miles's sextet come together to record the bestselling jazz album of all time: Kind of Blue. 3 Shades of Blue follows the paths of Miles, Coltrane and Evans to the mountaintop of 1959 and their roads on from there. It's a book about music and business, race and heroin, and an astonishing meditation on creativity and the strange hothouses that can produce its full flowering.

But above all this is the story of three very different men - their struggles, their choices, their inspiration. The tapestry of their lives is, in James Kaplan's hands, an American Odyssey.

Birth Of The Cool - 2024 Reissue

Ermitage

In the summer of 1948 Miles Davis, in collaboration with the arranger Gil Evans, whom he had met several years earlier, decided to carry out his project by detaching himself from the principles of bebop to participate in a new form of jazz. Installed in New York, he founded a new group, intermediate between the big band and small bebop groups. Cool jazz was born, but it was not an immediate revolution: the nonet was quickly dissolved, and this new music took several years to establish itself among jazz musicians and the public.

On September 18, 1948, the nonet performed for the first time in public, opening for Count Basie's show at the Royal Roost in New York under the title "Nonet by Miles Davis, arrangement by Gerry Mulligan, Gil Evans and John Lewis ". An unusual name which betrays the desire to create music based largely on arrangements.

This release is part of the New Ermitage collection available from January 2024: 18 jazz and soul titles reissued on yellow vinyl with new codes and renewed graphics.

Milestones is Davis's recording in a sextet configuration with John Coltrane, Paul Chambers, Cannonball Adderley, Philly Joe Jones and Red Garland.

It's the last studio session saw the rhythm section of Garland, Chambers and Jones assembled (Jones was both Garland left the line-up shortly after signing up). In this album, Davis start to study (particularly in the song that gives the album its title) the type of modal jazz that eventually adopted and popularized in the album Kind of Blue.

Originally recorded in 1954 and initially issued on a couple of 10 albums, it features a mix of quintet and sextet material, recorded during his spell with Prestige Records and produced by Bob Weinstock. The various tracks were gathered together, along with a previously unreleased track, and issued as a 12 album in 1957. The end result is an important album in the development of bop music, a genre Miles Davis practically owned.

Columbia

In a Silent Way is a studio album by American jazz trumpeter, composer, and bandleader Miles Davis, released on July 30, 1969, on Columbia Records. Produced by Teo Macero, the album was recorded in one session date on February 18, 1969, at CBS 30th Street Studio in New York City. Incorporating elements of classical sonata form, Macero edited and arranged Davis's recordings from the session to produce the album. Marking the beginning of his "electric" period, In a Silent Way has been regarded by music writers as Davis's first fusion recording, following a stylistic shift toward the genre in his previous records and live performances.

At the Newport Jazz Festival in 1955, Davis performed the song ''Round Midnight' as part of an all-star jam session, with the song's composer Thelonious Monk, along with Connie Kay and Percy Heath of the Modern Jazz Quartet, Zoot Sims, and Gerry Mulligan. Davis's solo received a positive reception from many jazz fans and critics. His response to this performance was typically laconic: 'What are they talking about? I just played the way I always play.' George Avakian of Columbia Records was in the audience, and his brother Aram persuaded him that he ought to sign Davis to the label.

Miles Davis

Bitches Brew

Columbia

Miles marries Betty, gets the funk and this is the end result: Along with "Kind Of Blue", but coming from a completely different angle, "Bitches Brew" is probably Davis' most celebrated work. Recorded in three days in August of 1969 and often heralded as the first shot fired in the fusion movement, "Bitches Brew" melds jazz with rock, and as an essential part of any psyche-prog head's record collection as jazz fans. Davis had already spearheaded two major jazz movements (cool and modal jazz) and was about to initiate another major change (the album's cover also sports the phrase "Directions In Music By Miles Davis" above the title). Most of the musicians (Wayne Shorter, Joe Zawinul, Jack DeJohnette, Chick Corea ) who played on the album went on to become giants of the 1970s fusion movement, with "Bitches Brew" being the jump-of point. Artists as disparate as Carlos Santana, Joni Mitchell and Radiohead cite this epic long player as an influence.
