  As Patrick said - a classic, you will not regret.

  And if you are in that mood, definitely check out Rififi.

  Hey man! That is a classical. I can think of nobody in France not haven´t seen it yet.
  Miles played in front of the silent screen and let his feelings flow.
  It is also an Hi-fi classic.
  A French film noir. And you can see the influence of US films.

    is a 180gm German vinyl reissue done a couple years back; this corrected an issue with the original mix which was mastered with way too much reverb, and included for the 1st time the complete set
    I have heard the original 10" Fontana pressing and own a Fontana reissue, Dutch Phillips pressing from the 1960's and Japanese + USA pressings

    The German 180gm of this is just fabulous!

      On the first issue of this, 1/2 of an lp called "Jazz Track" only about half od the original score was released. The full score was not available until recently. But the other side of the original has Miles' first recording of "on Green Dolphin Street", which became a jazz standard.
