Miles Davis and Gil Evans bridged styles and collaborated on highconcept projects three times during their celebrated careers. For their f inal act, they created Sketches of Spain, a peak moment in each legends legacy. The transformative record weds Spanish themes, lush orchestrations, romantic timbres, and Davis lyrical methods in a tender ceremony. Seldom, if ever, did Davis ever so expressively and liberally paint with color. And in Evans, he has a like-minded partner to help draw out tones, shades, and textures. Ranked #358 on Rolling Stones 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, deemed a work of unparalleled grace and lyricism by noted scribe J.D. Considine, bestowed a five-star review from DownBeat, and noted by Q to have taken jazz in a new direction, Sketches of Spain remains universally renowned.

Part of Mobile Fidelitys Miles Davis restoration series, the 1960 landmark has been afforded the ultimate white-gloves treatment for its 65th anniversary. Sourced from the original master tapes, strictly limited to 5,000 numbered copies, and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, this UltraDisc One-Step 33RPM 180g LP set dramatically expands the soundstages and eradicates a prior dryness that many critics found inhibitive to the records enjoyment. Youll hear the full-range extension of woodwinds, strings, and percussion, all of which come alive with superior definition and detail amid ultra-quiet backgrounds. Sonically, the results are as breathtaking as the music, and a personal invitation to pull up a chair and enjoy what went down at Columbia 30th Street Studio decades ago in New York City.
