Relaxin' With the Miles Davis Quintet (1958)
Released Jan 1, 1958

Start with “If I Were a Bell” if you know your way around a show tune. Red Garland’s piano introduction rings like a bell, and Davis gives the melody a lilt you can follow into the solos. Keep listening for how John Coltrane packs a different amount of activity into the same familiar song.
