Details: Amazon.ca In keeping with the title, Love Songs captures Miles Davis at his romantic best. These cuts were culled from classic studio dates (and one concert) recorded between 1957 and 1964, and the intimate sound of Davis's trumpet unifies the nine poignant ballads chosen for this loving compilation. Whether leading one of his many quintets or performing in front of a jazz orchestra, Miles was the master of confidential moods. The 15-minute version of "My Funny Valentine" is so hushed and pensive that one almost forgets that it was recorded live at Philharmonic Hall. On "My Ship" and George Gershwin's "I Loves You, Porgy," Miles's musings are surrounded by the luxurious arrangements of Gil Evans. With tasteful accompaniment and wonderful compositions, this Miles Davis collection is straight from the heart. --Mitch Myers Product description Davis,Miles ~ Love Songs
