Perhaps the Best Live Jazz Recording of all Time

This is perhaps the ultimate live jazz recording of all time, and the most underrated one, for that matter. The rhythm section (Herbie, Tony, Ron) is in top form. Herbie's solos are the most elegant and beautiful things ever to grace the keys of the piano. Miles is nothing short of brilliant here, and it is as if the bell of his trumpet is projecting notes straight from his soul. George Coleman, here, plays the best concert of his life, his cool, relaxed playing the perfect compliment to Miles' more edgy playing. There are barely words to describe the complex tapestry that the rhythm section weaves. If there is one jazz album that will send chills down your spine, this is it.
