| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
The Return of the Prodigal Son!
For the first time ever this legendary concert has been published in its entirety. The adventure began in 2022 with a visit to a tape recorder enthusiast in Brittany. It turned out that the latter had the missing part of this extraordinary recording. It took us almost two years travelling across the south of France, and the United States to finally find the other original tapes in... Stockholm!
We are proud and happy to present this first volume to you.
That 11 October, Davis was back in the city he loved so much, on the stage of the legendary Olympia concert hall where the likes of Edith Piaf, Charles Aznavour, Sydney Bechet, Ella Fitzgerald, Ray Charles and so many others had performed. The trumpeter had found his bearings again and was playing music completely concordant with his inspirations of the time.
Paris and Miles, Miles and Paris: a love story he summed up thus: “Early in 1949, I took a group to Paris. This was my first trip out of the country and it changed the way I looked at things forever. I loved being in Paris and loved the way I was treated … That's where I met Jean-Paul Sartre and Pablo Picasso and Juliette Greco. I have never felt like that in my life since.”
That October night at the Olympia, the adored Davis was back without Coltrane. The saxophone player now with the band was far better suited to Davis's vision: the extraordinary Sonny Stitt, the “Lone Wolf”. Together with Jamaican pianist Wynton Kelly, whom Davis had hired in 1959, double bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb, they formed a cohesive group bridging with musicality that featured an ideal blend of restrained strength and discreet intelligence.
Miles Davis, prodigal son, was back at the Olympia to rousing applause to give a concert that would go down in history.
