the album miles davis quintet live in europe was released in italy in 1989. it holds two long and beautiful tracks. the first was recorded on the 4th of november 1967 at the philharmonie in berlin during the berlin jazz festval. 43 seamless minutes featuring miles davis of course on trumpet, wayne shorter playing tenor, herbie hancock on piano, ron carter on bass and the unbeatable tony williams on dreams. the second session was probably recorded on the 27th of september 1960 at the free trade hall in manchester, not on the 6th of october as indicated (the wonderful kind of blue pages are extremely reliable). miles davis can be heard with sonny stitt on alto and tenor saxes, wynton kelly on piano, paul chambers on bass and jimmy (not: jimmie) cobb on drums executing a long improvisation based on cole porter´s "all of you".
