O’s Notes: This ‘Lovers’ collection extracts the best of the romantic moments in Miles’ Prestige portfolio. This is material recorded in the mid-1950s mostly with his quintet. That group included Philly Joe Jones (d), Paul Chambers (b), Red Garland (p) and John Coltrane (sax). Davis’ tone is warm and buttery smooth throughout. Just drop this one in and let the mood evolve during the evening. Miles is doing his part!
