Miles Davis's The Complete Birth Of The Cool stands as one of the most influential recordings in jazz history, capturing the revolutionary sound that emerged from the brief but monumental Miles Davis Nonet between 1949 and 1950. Originally released in 1957 as a compilation from three separate studio sessions, this groundbreaking work helped establish the cool jazz movement and showcased Davis's innovative approach to ensemble playing.
This 2019 Capitol Records reissue presents the complete story of the nonet, featuring not only the classic 12 studio sides but also rare live recordings from the Royal Roost captured during 1948 radio broadcasts. Remastered from the original session tapes and accompanied by a 20-page booklet with new liner notes by Ashley Kahn, this comprehensive collection chronicles the full legacy of one of jazz's most important ensembles in pristine sound quality.
