Spanning five decades and seven labels, this consolidated first time vinyl edition of the 2001 collection The Essential Miles Davis captures the jazz giant at every stage of his trailblazing career, from his early recordings with Bird ('Now's the Time') through his cornerstone triumphs ('So What,' 'Round Midnight,' 'Someday My Prince Will Come,' 'Miles Runs the Voodoo Down,' 'Summertime,' 'The Pan Piper') to his late twilight years ('Time After Time'). And when you're the best you work with the best so the 14-track set also features contributions from such fellow music luminaries as Gil Evans, Dizzy Gillespie, Gerry Mulligan, Bill Evans, Wynton Kelly, Hank Mobley, Wayne Shorter, and John Scofield among many more.
