Miles Davis' Final Collaboration with Arranger Gil Evans Yields Watershed Innovations: Flamenco-Themed Sketches of Spain Spins Graceful Webs of Sound and Emotion

Mobile Fidelity's UltraDisc One-Step 180g 33RPM LP Set Brings Out the Record's Full Spectrum of Color: 65th Anniversary Edition Pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing Miles Davis and Gil Evans bridged styles and collaborated on high-concept projects three times during their celebrated careers. For their final act, they created Sketches of Spain, a peak moment in each legend's legacy. The transformative record weds Spanish themes, lush orchestrations, romantic timbres, and Davis' lyrical methods in a tender ceremony. Seldom, if ever, did Davis ever so expressively and liberally paint with color. And in Evans, he has a like-minded partner to help draw out tones, shades, and textures. Ranked #358 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, deemed 'a work of unparalleled grace and lyricism' by noted scribe J.D. Considine, bestowed a five-star review from DownBeat, and noted by Q to have taken 'jazz in a new direction,' Sketches of Spain remains universallyrenowned. Part of Mobile Fidelity's Miles Davis restoration series, the 1960 landmark has been afforded the ultimate white-gloves treatment for it's 65th anniversary. Sourced from the original master tapes, strictly limited to 5,000 numbered copies, and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, this UltraDisc One-Step 33RPM 180g LP set dramatically expands the soundstages and eradicates a prior dryness that many critics found inhibitive to the record's enjoyment. You'll hear the full-range extension of woodwinds, strings, and percussion, all of which come alive with superior definition and detail amid ultra-quiet backgrounds. Sonically, the results are as breathtaking as the music, and a personal invitation to pull up a chair and enjoy what went down at Columbia 30th Street Studio decades ago in New York City. 1/4' / 15 IPS ANALOG MASTER DSD 64 ANALOG CONSOLE LATHE Numbered Limited Edition UD1S 180g 33RPM LP Box Set NUMBERED LIMITED EDITION OF 5,000 Track List Side One: 1.
