	Miles Davis & Lester Young: Live In Europe 1956 (CD: Matchball) At the end of 1956, Miles Davis decided to break up his quintet with John Coltrane and accepted an offer to tour Europe with a formation called 'Birdland All Stars', which also included Lester Young and the Modern Jazz Quartet. This release presents music recorded during that tour. Miles and Lester would never be recorded again playing together apart from the tapes made during this tour. Miles' amazing 1955 Newport set has been added as a bonus in its entirety. This was the music (especially his rendition of 'Round Midnight') that helped Davis enjoy a resurgence in his career after a period in which his name had been obscured by his drug problems.

Miles Davis: In Concert At The Olympia, Paris 1957 (CD: Fresh Sound) With little publicity and only one star arrived from America, Miles Davis, Bruno Coquatrix, owner and manager of the Olympia, accomplished an impressive feat by presenting a sold-out concert on Saturday, November 30, 1957, at 6 p.m. André Hodeir in Jazz Hot had written, "This concert by Miles Davis was one of the most beautiful jazz concerts we have ever heard in Paris. Brilliantly supported by Kenny Clarke, René Urtreger, Pierre Michelot, and Barney Wilen, the great trumpeter gave the best of himself in many passages." The producer and owner of this recording was the late jazz promoter Marcel Romano, who brought Miles Davis to Paris. After more than 60 years in storage, Romano’s nephew and heir discovered the tapes and sold them to Fresh Sound Records for a commercial release. The recording of this historic concert is presented in its entirety for the first time in this edition. The remastered original tapes have been used to produce this CD, ensuring excellent sound quality. (Fresh Sound Records) Price: £17.99
