Miles Davis All Stars – Walkin'
$46.95
Recorded just as Davis was transitioning away from the cool jazz of his Birth of the Cool sessions, the April 1954 date that produced the title track captured something raw and urgent, a hard bop blueprint that would reshape the decade. The 12-minute "Walkin'" itself became a rallying point, proof that jazz could be earthy and sophisticated at once.
Released in 1957 on Prestige Records, Walkin' features a collection of songs that were originally recorded in 1954. With Davis on trumpet and as band leader, the recordings also feature Horace Silver, Lucky Thompson, J.J. Johnson, Percy Heath and Kenny Clarke. This new edition of the album is released as part of the Original Jazz Classics Series on 180-gram vinyl pressed at RTI with all-analog mastering from the original tapes at Cohearent Audio and a Stoughton Tip-On Jacket.
