This CD encompasses some of the best, live and fast paced style that the "Second Great Quintet" of Miles' career. I highly recomend a listen if you haven't come to know the fast Miles that has lost its touch lately. As the liner notes state, "Miles in Berlin points towards the masterpieces to come" and it couldn't be more true. The group playes the Berlin Philharmonie like it was a grand jazz hall, with the excitement of three ultra-fast tempoed tunes, Milestones, Walkin' and Stella By Starlight. With this first live prefromance with the new group, it can be easily said that the world of jazz changed on Sept. 25, 1964 and Miles' genius would become even more admired through the next few decades.
