Notes
Milestones is Miles Davis’ only original sextet recording featuring John Coltrane, Paul Chambers, Cannonball Adderley, Philly Joe Jones and Red Garland. This 1958 masterpiece captured Davis’ first modal jazz experiments in pieces like “Straight, No Chaser” and the title track. Both the song and the album proved to be actual milestones in Jazz, as the modalism Davis introduced on this record continued to influence Jazz on a global scale.
