Biography

What is cool? At its very essence, cool is all about what’s happening next. In popular culture, what’s happening next is a kaleidoscope encompassing past, present and future: that which is about to happen may be cool, and that which happened in the distant past may also be cool. This timeless quality, when it applies to music, allows minimalist debate – with few exceptions, that which has been… Read more in Amazon's Miles Davis Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect., March 8, 2008

WILLIE A YOUNG II "willow" (Houston, TX.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lift to the Scaffold (Reis) (Rstr) (Dig) (Audio CD)

I kept this baby on 'repeat' all last night and it was the perfect companion. For all the haters who quibble about the 16 (supposedly missing) tracks here's a thought; some of us like works the way the artist originally concieved them not the excessive, remastered editions with superflous material added to simply fill out the running time on a CD. This is simply gorgeous music that embraces the spirit of brevity while living and breathing totally in the moment. An unjustly forgotten and underrated classic. Essential.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible blunder., September 20, 2007

Plasket "a man obsessed" (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lift to the Scaffold (Reis) (Rstr) (Dig) (Audio CD)

Verve has really been talking about their sole Miles Davis release lately, especially because the film (under the title Elevator to the Gallows) was released on DVD by no less than Criterion. I thought that when they got around to re-mastering this CD, they'd do a good job. Instead, they reissued the original 10-track LP, stripping the CD of 16 bonus tracks. This is an abomination; Miles and Louis Malle deserve more.

3.0 out of 5 stars Only 10 tracks, not 26., September 18, 2007

David Hensley - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Lift to the Scaffold (Reis) (Rstr) (Dig) (Audio CD)

This CD does not have 26 tracks; it only has the first 10. (I'm not sure why Verve would go to the trouble to release a version of this excellent CD and not provide all the tracks that have been released on previous versions.)
