Miles In Tokyo - Japanese Import (1964) @ 320



Recorded in '64, Miles in Tokyo finds the iconic Miles Davis performing with his almost-second great quintet. Tenor saxophonist Sam Rivers, a more accomplished and daring experimentalist than his predecessor, George Coleman, joined the group after a fellow Bostonian, drummer Tony Williams, recommended him to Davis. There are times on this recording when one might understand why Davis and Rivers never meshed, and times when the partnership is quite wonderful, though brief.

Personnel:

Miles Davis: trumpet
Sam Rivers: tenor saxophone
Herbie Hancock: piano
Ron Carter: bass
Tony Williams: drums

Track listing:

1. Introduction by Teruo Isono 1:10
2. If I Were a Bell 10:17

5. Walkin' 9:15
