Miles Davis' fifth and final album with his Second Great Quintet is kaleidoscopic in sound, forward-looking in structure, and contextually grounded in approach. As the legendary leader's first venture into what would become fusion, it's historical for containing the premier appearances of electric piano, bass, and guitar on a Davis effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaden with rich textures and style-bridging elements, Mobile Fidelity's SACD brings the aural magic into focus.

Davis' burnished trumpet resounds with utmost clarity, and the soundstage seems to extend for days. Remarkable separation and imaging give each musician their own space, allowing every passage to come across without limitations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album's wide-open soundscapes soar. As do the fluid contributions of Davis' mates. Tony Williams' percussion, central to every composition here, transpires before your eyes. Herbie Hancock's piano hovers and fades with sublime purity. And George Benson, who sits on \"Paraphernalia,\" blows the equivalent of smoke rings with his bluesy guitar, which here takes on brilliant tonality and definition. The acoustic material that occupies the second half of the record is equally transparent and full-bodied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGranted enhanced production and a greater field of audible information,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiles in the Sky\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ecan finally be perceived as belonging to the same upper echelon as Davis' ubiquitously acclaimed\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eNefertiti\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eFilles de Kilimanjaro\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e– the albums that precede and follow, respectively, this watershed title.

Doubling as organized jams and bridges between jazz and rock, both the rhythmically challenging \"Stuff\" and frisky \"Paraphernalia\" glancing toward the future while keeping solid footing in the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimilarly, so do \"Country Son\" and \"Black Comedy.\" In his original review for jazz authority DownBeat, Larry Kart observes: \"Davis takes material from his earlier days and darkens its emotional tone. His opening phrase on 'Country Son' recalls a fragment from his 'Summertime' solo on the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003ePorgy and Bess\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ealbum, but here it is delivered with a vehemence that rejects the poignancy of the earlier performance.
