Description
Recorded at the Feb. 12, 1964 New York concert that also gave us the more balladic album My Funny Valentine, Four & More showcases the Miles Davis quintet at their peak. This less - than - a - year - old group at the time of recording mostly played at blistering tempos. The repertoire is well - balanced, including familiar hard - bop tunes like “Four” and “Walkin’”, original free - bop compositions such as “Joshua” and “Seven Steps To Heaven”, and the standard “There Is No Greater Love”. The only tune not played at supersonic speed, it electrified a sold - out Philharmonic Hall. Spurred by the rhythm section of pianist Herbie Hancock (23 at the time), bassist Ron Carter (26), and especially 18 - year - old genius drummer Tony Williams, Davis' performance, especially in the upper register, was extremely commanding. His front - line partner, tenor saxophonist George Coleman, played exceptionally well that night. Four & More is available on black vinyl with a linen - laminate sleeve. Tracklist: A1. So What; A2. Walkin’; A3. Joshua/Go - Go (Theme and Announcement); B4. Four; B5. Seven Steps To Heaven; B6. There Is No Greater Love/Go - Go (Theme and Announcement).
This vinyl LP, Four & More, is a great addition to your music collection. To play it, simply place the LP on your turntable, gently lower the needle onto the starting groove, and enjoy the amazing performance of the Miles Davis quintet. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting fingerprints on the record, which can affect the sound quality. After each use, carefully put the LP back into its linen - laminate sleeve to protect it from dust and scratches. Store it in a cool, dry place, standing upright to prevent warping. If you notice any dust on the record, use a soft, anti - static brush to clean it before playing.
