Miles Davis - My Funny Valentine / Mobile Fidelity

'My Funny Valentine: Miles Davis In Concert' marks several historical turning points: for Davis, it was the last time he recorded standards. It is also one of the last documents of the same band that created ‘Seven Steps To Heaven’.

The concert, which served as a benefit to support voter registration in the South and as a fundraiser for the NAACP, the Congress of Racial Equality and the SNCC, took place at the height of the civil rights movement – an issue that

was very close to Miles Davis's heart.

Pianist Herbie Hancock, bassist Ron Carter, drummer Tony Williams and tenor saxophonist George Coleman are on a par with the master on this legendary recording: the performance is full of lightness and bebop melodies and shows the

lyrical range and telepathic communication of this quintet. Miles Davis himself avoided his controversial avant-garde tendencies and seemed to receive divine inspiration that night, February 12, 1964, at the Philharmonic Hall in New York –

he never sounded more elegant and poetic!

The 180-gram SuperVinyl LP from Mobile Fidelity was elaborately mastered in the Californian MoFi studio: a breathtaking depth, dynamics, clarity, atmosphere and a greatly minimized background noise distinguish this new edition, cut at 33 rpm,

manufactured with Fidelity Record Pressing and strictly limited to 3,000 numbered copies. The faithful, tonal balance of the MoFi SuperVinyl offers a unique chance to experience this unforgettable jazz concert again!

We recommend the use of "L'Art du Son" LP cleaner to wet wash your vinyl. Even new records of high quality production will benefit from this.
