Vinyl Records Miles Davis - The Complete Birth Of The Cool [2LP]

Miles Davis (1926-1991) is an outstanding American jazz trumpeter, conductor and composer who became one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Born in Illinois, raised in East St. Louis. Davis began playing the trumpet as a teenager and attended the Juilliard School, which he left to join the Charlie Parker Quintet. He recorded the "Birth of the Cool" sessions, which became important for cool jazz, and worked on hard bop in the 1950s. After a successful performance at the Newport Jazz Festival, he signed a contract with Columbia Records, where he recorded the famous album "Round About Midnight". As a result of his collaboration with John Coltrane and Paul Chambers, as well as with the arranger Gil Evans, such masterpieces as "Sketches of Spain" and "Kind of Blue" were born. Davis continued to develop his music by introducing new talented musicians to his group. His legacy is of immense importance to jazz and music in general.
