Review

When Miles Davis cut this quartet session, he was nearing the formation of his first great quintet, the one with John Coltrane that would go into a recording frenzy in 1956 and create five amazing LP releases before Davis signed with Columbia Records. Without a second horn in his group, Davis found plenty of room here to stretch out, seldom straying from his middle-register wooziness. Bassist Oscar Pettiford, schooled in Ellingtonian and bebop complexities, keeps the music active and agile, making this a contrast-filled session. The quartet's "Night in Tunisia" is a great take on Dizzy Gillespie's warhorse. --Andrew BartlettThis was a forerunner of the Miles Davis Quintet as it was his first session with Red Garland and Philly Joe Jones. By the fall, John Coltrane and Paul Chambers would come aboard to help form the first of a continuum of great Davis working groups. On 'A Night in Tunisia' Philly Joe used special sticks with little cymbals riveted to the shaft. OJC/Fantasy Records.
