Melbourne 1988
CD (Item 864069) Hi Hat, 1988 — Condition: Used 2CD
Related searches
A mighty strong live set from Miles Davis – especially given that he could sometimes be a bit spotty in concert at this point in his career – a double-length set recorded in Melbourne in 1988, with bold solos from the leader, and a great performance from a group that includes Kenny Garret on saxes and flute, Joe McCreary on guitar, Robert Irving III and Adam Holzman on keyboards, Benny Rietveld on bass, Ricky Wellman on drums, and Marilyn Mazur on percussion! The recording is great, and Miles has some really powerful passages on the album – and the music covers the full range of styles that Davis was touching on during the 80s – from his reborn Columbia years, to the later Tutu material. 18 tracks in all – and titles include "Heavy Metal", "Time After Time", "Tutu", "The Senate/You & Me", "New Blues", "Perfect Way", "In A Silent Way/Intruder", "Movie Star", "Splatch", and "Portia". © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.
Used CD Grade
We use the all-encompassing grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.
When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.
All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
Condition Notes
If something is relevant, we try to describe it in the notes — especially if it is release or packaging details, or an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the CD. This might include, but isn't limited to, scratches, tracks that skip, case/insert damage or wear, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
