All Music Review
After both John Coltrane & Cannonball Adderley left Miles Davis’ quintet, he was caught in the web of seeking suitable replacements. It was a period of trial & error for him that nonetheless yielded some legendary recordings like Sketches of Spain & Someday My Prince Will Come. The lineup is Davis, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers, and alternating drummers Jimmy Cobb and Philly Jo Jones. The saxophonist was Hank Mobley on all but 2 tracks. John Coltrane returns for the title track & “Teo.” The set opens with the title, a lilting waltz that nonetheless gets an original treatment here, despite having been recorded by Dave Brubeck. Kelly is in keen form, playing a bit sprightlier than the tempo would allow, & slips flourishes in the high register inside the melody for an “elfin” feel. Davis waxes light & lyrical with his Harmon mute, playing glissando throughout. Mobley plays a strictly journeyman solo, & then Coltrane blows the pack away with a solo so deep inside the harmony it sounds like it’s coming from somewhere else. Mobley’s real moment on the album is on the next track, “Old Folks,” when he doesn’t have Coltrane breathing down his neck. Mobley’s soul-stationed lyricism is well-suited to his soloing here, & is for the rest of the album except, of course, on “Teo,” where Coltrane takes him out again. The closer on the set, “Blues #2,” is a vamp on “All Blues,” from Kind of Blue, & features Kelly & Chambers playing counterpoint around an 8 bar figure then transposing it to 12. Jones collapses the beat, strides it out, & then erects it again for the solos of Davis & Mobley. This is relaxed session; there are no burning tracks here, but there is much in the way of precision playing & a fine exposition of Miles’ expansive lyricism.
