Miles Davis ~Porgy & Bess~

[Hajidub]

Holy doctor jesus, I've never heard this album! I have it on cassette only, playing it through a recent Nak BX-300 addition. Started on side 2 Pray (Oh Doctor Jesus) was the song; wow O' wow. The entire Gershwin masterpiece with Miles and his crew, a life altering event. Sounds so smooth, great transitions.....I need an original on vinyl (it's hard to imagine it sounding better than what's playing now). After each side of the tape I felt the urge to stand and applaud, there hasn't been an album through my listening room that's brought this reaction in a long time!

Thanks for the offer, but wrong artist. It wasn't the vocals that threw me, it was the horns and composition.

This is an album I've only listened to a couple of times at most. Adding the orchestra to Miles has always thrown me off a bit - same goes for Sketches of Spain and the other Gil Evans collaborations.

I have an original 6-eye in pretty good condition and based on your post, I'll put it on and give it another shot.
