Brilliant stuff.......2001-03-13

This is a terrific overview of Mile's years with Columbia. And a great introduction for anyone wanting to get familiar with his different styles. I myself wasn't familiar with his electric years until this set. I wasn't sure what to expect and if I'd even like it, as I love his older works, the accoustic stuff. But I did like it, very much. It suprised me as I really didn't think I would. And so, this is a set where you can discover new things about the great Miles, instead of buying a load of individual albums first. The 24 page booklet contains a very informative essay about Miles, and comes with lots of photos. This set is a very good place to start off a collection of Miles. It contains a good selection of his many different styles.

A must have for any jazz buff or beginner...........2000-08-14

A great collection for any jazz fan! You get the best of everything, from his early works, to bebop, to his fusion work in the later years. It was my first Miles Davis CD, and many more have followed.

A good Start.......1999-12-29

This boxed set gives any person interested in learning about Miles Davis a good start. These 4 cd's will take you through each "phase" of Miles Davis recording history with Columbia. The notes on the booklet are good and simple. Both the music and reading material will be useful as a blueprint in order to learn more about this artist music... If you like this set get ready to spend a lot more as it will almost imposible to stay away from Miles music.

CD is awesome.......1998-07-30
