Help please: identify Miles Davis track

[Nick Armstrong]

Thanks for the thumbs-up about this series, Caliban. I'm enjoying it.
As well as the cool music (including Shostakovich), there are some decent descriptive turns of phrase.

I like the mysterious Inspector too...

The opening section doesn't sound like Miles to me. The second piece of music with the expressive trumpet playing is Miles from the soundtrack of 'Ascenseur Pour L'Echafaud' by Louis Malle.

A short tutorial on the use of the term 'band' when talking about Miles is on offer for a small charge.

I am now in a position to be able to report to forumistas that the tutorial for Caliban regarding the use of the term 'band' with respect to Miles - long-overdue one might add - took place in a hostelry in the north-west this afternoon. Caliban is now conversant with the term 'the two great quintets' and can, unaided, give approximate timings for the two ensembles. The rather fluid nature of Evans's [Bill] involvement was also touched upon. Caliban is more naturally inclined to the music of the era of the first quintet plus the Evans [Gil] collaborations. The riches of the second await, but I fear that anything post Bitches Brew may be a step too far. The beer was from Clitheroe and facilitated the discussion admirably.

I am considerably enlightened regarding Miles; and moreover just had Lift to the Scaffold playing in the car driving through the fleshpots of north Cheshire following a birthday party.

How appropriate to accompany a discussion of Miles.
