Multi-layered, expansive, reflective, feelingly political, musically expert. Dev Hynes, Kelani and How To Dress Well all in the mix; Q-Tip, Tweet, Lil Wayne… and old man Knowles, most tellingly of all. Knockout singing.
Mono LP from Music On Vinyl.
Red vinyl.
With Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock, Tony Williams.
From 1964, with Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter and Tony Williams on drums; and young Sam Rivers replacing George Coleman (pushing the sound further out, and spiking Davis’ signature cool).
‘High-energy live versions of songs by Rodgers & Hart, Cole Porter, and Richard Carpenter, as well as a restlessly fast-paced take on the Davis staple So What.’
Vinyl via Get On Down.
