Miles Davis - Seven Steps to Heaven - Hybrid SACDIn 1963, Miles Davis was at a transitional point
in his career, without a regular group and wondering what his future
musical direction would be. At the time he recorded the music heard on
this disc, he was in the process of forming a new band, as can be seen
from the personnel: tenor saxophonist George Coleman, Victor Feldman
(who turned down the job) and Herbie Hancock on pianos, bassist Ron
Carter, and Frank Butler and Tony Williams on drums. Recorded at two
separate sessions, this set is highlighted by the classic "Seven Steps
To Heaven," "Joshua" and slow passionate versions of "Basin Street
Blues" and "Baby Won't You Please Come Home."
Mastered by George Marino at Sterling Sound.
