Miles Davis - Quiet Nights

Clear Vinyl

The last of the collaborative LPs Miles Davis recorded with Gil Evans for Columbia, Quiet Nights is easily the most controversial. Following the success of Sketches Of Spain, Davis and Evans aimed to further the Latin explorations, this time pointing to Brazil, as heard on the adaptation of Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Corcovado" and Joao Gilberto's "Aos Pés Da Cruz," with its stellar Ron Carter bass accompaniment, though some were surprised by the brevity of the proceedings, including Miles himself.
