Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic.......2001-07-10

This is a fantastic album, with interesting arrangements of often obscure or underappreciated works by Miles Davis, excellent soloing, and true excitement exploding from your speakers. The opening cut, "High Speed Chase", is one of the most exciting jazz recordings I have ever heard. Bravo, Umo!

4 out of 5 stars Big Band Electronic Miles is phat!.......2000-07-19

This album has some of Miles latter works arranged for big band and showcases trumpeter Tim Hagans. All in all it is a good combination. Some writing (The Prince Of Darkness) is quite ambitious, but all are fresh and energetic versions of great Miles hits. Hagans, the star soloist, is at his best and will make your scream in excitement. The only thing which would have really made it a 5 star album is if they would have had a better drummer, but that is really a minor issue.
