Miles In Tokyo
Miles in Tokyo is a live album recorded on July 14, 1964 by the Miles Davis Quintet (featuring Sam Rivers, Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock and Tony Williams) at the Tokyo Kōsei Nenkin Kaikan, Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan. The album was not released right after recording. It finally saw the light of day in 1969, and was released in Japan only.
It is the first recording of Davis in Japan, and the only album to showcase an early incarnation of his Second Great Quintet featuring Sam Rivers on tenor saxophone, following George Coleman's departure. Sam was in the Quintet for just a short time, before Wayne Shorter completed the classic line-up which recorded such albums as ESP and Miles Smiles, through to Miles in the Sky.
The legendary Miles in Tokyo album is available on audiophile vinyl. The heavyweight gatefold contains a 4 page-booklet glued inside, like the original 1969 Japanese LP version.
