Music reviews of Walkin
Music Review: MIles Davis in Fine Mellow Mode
Rating: 5 Stars
As a Miles Davis connoisseur, I have collected many, many of this great musician's recorded work through the years. I caught on to Miles Davis in the mid Sixties when he was moving out of the hard bop style and moving into his inauguration of the jazz fusion movement with albums like "In a Silent Way," "Bitches Brew," "Live at Filmore East," and many others. Miles Davis has always had an incredible range, from whimsical light jazz to light bop to hard bop to the electric and post-electric era in his music.
Because I became aware of Miles Davis at that particular moment in history I was not familiar with a lot of his earlier music. The series of albums on the Prestige label - including "Walkin'" - features Davis in a recording live format that is quite interesting. That is, rather than creating music from scratch specifically for the recording session, Davis recorded here with his working bands at the time. This is a unique opportunity to hear what Miles Davis and his bands of the time sounded like live.
I find in this music with its overall sound and mood to be refreshingly cheerful and pleasant. That in no way detracts from the technical prowess that permeates the music of Miles Davis, the music of "Walkin'" included. There is a whimsical feel here, a sense of the ebullience of the time that these musicians spent playing together. The music that came later in the career of Miles Davis was perhaps more thought out and deliberate, more intentional. This music just flows freely and it is a great joy.
You will really enjoy the pure joy and light nature of this music. If you love Miles Davis, you will love this music. It is truly an enjoyable experience to hear this pleasurable music and connect it with the great music that followed with Miles Davis and his subsequent bands. If you are just interested in some pleasing light jazz music, you will be equally satisfied. You won't be disappointed in "Walkin'."
