Vinyl LP pressing of this album from the Jazz great featuring the complete original 1958 Jazz Track album consisting of a suite of Miles" music for Louis Malle"s film Ascenseur Pour L"Echafaud (Frantic). An absolutely fascinating release. The French group is completely dominated by Miles, though Barney Wilen manages to play very well in his brief solos. But it is Miles one remembers from these tracks; he conveys the concentrated beauty and stark drama of, say, Billie Holiday. His sadness is devastating here, just as his lyricism is exquisite and the pain of his beauty almost insupportable. Some of the very best, if not the best, Miles solos are contained on the Elevator side of the LP. Jazz Beat.
