Less than a year after this live recording from the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival, these same six men would make jazz history with the cool modal classic, Kind Of Blue – perhaps the best and most famous jazz album of all-time. On that hot summer night, though, this band was far from cool as they absolutely smoked through Charlie Parker’s “Ah-Leu-Cha” at breakneck speed to open the show. For the remainder of the set, the group barely lets up, making for a steam hot set with blistering solos and top-notch playing from all involved. Reissued here with superb sound quality on LP by Doxy.
