About this album
'Round About Midnight is a landmark Miles Davis album and one of the defining statements of hard bop. Issued in 1957, it captured the first great Miles Davis Quintet in crisp, economical form, with John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones giving Davis the supple rhythm section he needed to turn standards into something leaner and more modern. The title performance, along with versions of “Bye Bye Blackbird” and “Dear Old Stockholm”, helped establish Davis’s cool, restrained approach as a powerful alternative to the flashier jazz styles of the era. Its lasting reputation made it a cornerstone of post-war jazz.
