Concert recording, broadcast by Europe-1
Great bands often have sown within them the seeds of their own destruction. A talented sideman will spend their time with a leader gaining experience, confidence, plaudits, and fame. Generally, the next move is to form their own band. Great artistic statements are often made by groups on the brink of imploding.
So it proved with Miles Davis' Kind of Blue sextet. First out was Bill Evans; indeed, he had already left by the time KoB was recorded, replaced by Wynton Kelly. Miles invited his ex-pianist back for the session, having concieved of music based on Bill's impressionistic playing. Next to go was altoist Cannonball Adderley, who had often recorded and performed alongside his brother, cornettist Nat, since the pair arrived in New York in the summer of 1955. They decided the time was right to form a new working band.
John Coltrane, too, had recorded as a leader for Prestige, Roulette and Blue Note but signing to Atlantic Records in 1959 brought about a creative rebirth- less than two weeks after the final KoB session, Trane started recording his classic Giant Steps, followed later in the year by Coltrane Jazz with the Davis rhythm section. He was ready to strike out on his own. Davis, however, was reluctant to lose another key player and persuaded Coltrane to stay for one final tour of Europe in the spring of 1960.
This was the first date of Norman Granz' three week Jazz At The Philharmonic package tour, where Davis shared the bill with Stan Getz and the Oscar Peterson Trio. The date was crisply recorded by Europe 1 radio, and the repertoire consists of some of Davis' recent hit recordings, plus two pieces from Kind Of Blue, released the previous summer, So What and All Blues.
Davis plays superbly at this gig- he seems to be in a very good period for his chops and he plays with a great deal of expression, subtlety, strength and poise. A device often used on the standard tunes is an extended, repeated turnaround at the end of the form over which the soloist plays, ending it with a melodic cue to signal a break into the next soloist (an early version of the 'coded phrases' Davis would deploy to introduce the next tune in the continuous sets of the late 60s and 1970s). Wynton Kelly is also brilliant across these recordings, an often undervalued pianist in the pantheon of Davis accompanists; he plays with impeccable swing, taste and drive and his dialogues with Davis are consistently fascinating. And Chambers and Cobb are there every step of the way. One of the great rhythm sections in jazz.
But the real revelation is Coltrane. A reluctant participant in the tour he apparently remained in a sour mood, rarely conversing and spending his free time practicing obsessively. He brings this tension to the bandstand- he seems determined to experiment publicly, pushing the limits of the saxophone and of his own playing. This was different even to the advanced 'sheets of sound' one might have been familiar with from recent Coltrane records or Kind Of Blue. Here, Trane utilises melodic cells that repeat and mutate, there is overblowing, split tones, multiphonics, altissimo register phrases above the tenor's normal range, anguished cries, lightning fast arpeggios, purposely out of key phrases, harmonies stacked on harmonies.
Jazz relies on tension and release but here Trane is adding tension on top of tension, often at great length- Coltrane once said to Davis "it seems like when I get going, I just don't know how to stop," to which Miles replied, with typical dryness, "why don't you try taking the horn out of your mouth?". Still, Davis allowed Trane the space to conduct his experiments, perhaps sensing he was working towards something revolutionary. If Coltrane's intention was to provoke the audience it worked- often, parts of the crowd erupt with boos and catcalls, while others are cheering. Modern jazz is splitting into warring factions before our ears. More than sixty years on it remains viscerally exciting.
More than just a fortunate recording of the Davis quintet on a good night, this is a crucial document in modern jazz. And it's a blast to listen to.

I have joined you from my COVIDcave
My high school chemistry teacher Marvin Perry at Orleans American High School took me and another student to this concert at the Olympia Theatre in Paris. Will never forget it.
Lovely
You're so lucky Mr. Ralston. I wish I grew up in the 60s.
Now THAT was a treat!!
cool teacher
Wow, What a life!
The sound on this recording is superb. It is clear, full-range, and natural (not over produced like today's recordings). This means the musicianship had to be spot on.
You are the man, Miles Dewey Davis lll, I have been enjoying you since my teenage days, and I still enjoy you now at 73 yrs. old. Your music will last forever... thanks
Given you wrote your comment 3 yrs ago, we are probably the same age. Yes, we were born in the "best of times." There were great cars, amazing and creative music--from folk to rock to Be-Bop--and kids our age everywhere.
63 year-old recording but still one of the MOST relevant and modern things that can be listened to!! 🎺🎷
Absolutely
Very true! Surely I'm amazed.
I'd say timeless, more than modern. but yeah. this channel is so good
History in the making
Coltrane is a man who is not afraid to play what's inside of him, his musical discourse is perfect and immense. Love Coltrane
I AGREE WITH YOU - HE HAS BEEN MY MUSICAL HERO SINCE 1959 - being an "old man", I had the pleasure of seeing Coltrane in person with his quartet in the early 60's during the "Great L.A. Jazz Scene" of the early 60's - "KEEP ENJOYING THE SOUNDS OF JAZZ" (especially Coltrane)
Miles was too full of himself .. he could hardly bear John, who rightly stole his show in the concerts. In fact, he replaced it with Wayne Shorter and for John maybe it was good for his music.
@@mariolongo7369 Mario, you are full of shit, ,Miles was the leader. Trane was beautiful, but do not take away from Miles. Jazz is not a competition.There is no better!!!
Coltrane is brilliant - but sometimes his sax is squeaky. Its like fingernails on a chalkboard, to me. See: 8:30 > 9:00
@@mariolongo7369 Trane gave Miles a recomendation of Wayne to replace him.
Great musicians, pure music. Miles Davis is unique, the fifthies and sixties produced the best music ever. To be confined at home in a quarantine, working and listening this kind of music is a real privilege.
Working remote from home, quarantine tunes for sure. Copious amounts of Bill Evans now, too.
Listen to this music help me clean up my house

Born in 1940...I’m so happy and privileged to have lived during this extraordinary period of Jazz development.....Wonderful music...Many thanks.
Me too. I saw these Cats live frequently in Birdland 52 & Bway NYNY 1958/62. MET MONK, KENTON, & MANY OTHERS. LOVE IT FOR LIFE.🙂

Thanks Miles, John, Dave for giving us your soul. ❤ 4:51
Coltrane in "All of You"... Wow, what the fuck?? He was definitely on to something. This is absolutely fantastic!!
I heard Coltrane in the morning and I feel better. Love.
It's true, Rosy. Listening to Trane uplifts your life.
Good answer
AMEN!!!
Mr. Coltrane is the master of time and space, a giant.
It's Monday May 12th 2024 at 6:30am and I'm loving this incredible music
I am here to learn, I am very ignorant on many things. I just know that this music sounds fantastic, magical and it really has the power to take me far into the sky. Big compliments to everyone in this rare community.
You too, Marco
I love how the piano player expands the melody into a story that he paints in his solo.
THE HOLY GRAIL OF THESE TWO SOULS TOGETHER. GOD BLESS THEM FOR ALL ETERNITY.

My fav drummer. Last time with Jimmy Cobb was Indianapolis 2000 meet of the International Society of Bassists. Was occasion for special gathering of the "Bassists of Bill Evans" -- Chuck Israels, Eddie Gomez, Marc Johnson, (forgetting who pianist was) and Jimmy Cobb on drums and wearing his NY Yankees cap.
coltrane is something else, he goes everywhere at the same time
he indeed reflected what he wanted. the universe
Master of time and space!!
Next level fearless genius
I am very fortunate and thankful to be among the happy few who enjoy this music. May The Almighty Lord bless you all 🙏🏾
Follow up to my earlier 'comment': Miles Davis 5tet at the Olympia (Paris) 1960. Near the end of this concert, some 'fans' sitting down front by the stage threw objects toward the stage. The thin see-thru curtains were closing, musicians were still on stage, and then the heavier curtains closed. Mr. Perry, my teacher who brought me to this show from Orleans, 70 miles south of Paris, explained this untoward behavior with the comment, "some evidently did not like Miles Davis turning his back to the audience." During my time in France (1959-1965) saw Coltrane 4tet and Monk 4tet at the Olympia; also Jacques Brel and Charles Aznavour and Gilbert Becaud. Great venue for music no doubt.
From before I was born. And I’m no longer young. This recording always existed to me.
This is American music baby! Love to all!
Coltrane is kicking ass!!!!!!!!!
This might be the greatest musical document of the twentieth century.
@ Jason Finch : Might be?
It's certainly one of them!
This is American classical music...music at its most creative and finest! Yes!!!
Beyond just being 'American'. Kind of Blue always reminds me of my hometown, London. Then he throws in 'Spanish' style in Flamenco Sketches ;-))
I'm teaching English for Summer School and they are reading Concrete Cowboy. The main character is named after Coltrane and none of them had ever heard him before. Playing this during their writing portion of class. They are actually digging it.
Just found this by accident; how lucky can you get? In the early 60s, we still had a few small clubs with all the greats dropping by...lucky me, my parents babysat our kids so we wouldn't miss out. There is nothing like a small club, where you can actually see the musicians, no one is yelling or trying to singing their "favorite" song. You can tell I'm old, ha, ha.
I saw Coltrane in a small club on the Sunset Strip in the early 1960s when I was a teenager.
The who's who of Jazz legendary artists, the greatest music ever ✌❤
.ONE OF MY FAVORITE LIVE RECORDINGS,MILES JUST LET'S COLTRANE DO HIS THING..THIS IS 60 YEARS AGO AND IT STILL IS AHEAD OF IT'S TIME TODAY,,THANK YOU MILES,JOHN,JIMMY,WYNTON,PAUL...YOU ARE ALL GONE NOW,,BUT ARE YOU??
Teaching the angels how to make music.
NEVER HAVING LEFT! IF THERE IS NO COMING OR GOING
Not necceraly
Being the youngest member of the quintet, 24-year old Paul is just everything that makes a perfect bass man: Just by giving the perfect grounding the two gods can shine even brighter. As radiant as John and Miles are, never forget the great genius that held the sky for them!
Amen
**** yhea!! very refreshing comment!
It's true, Paul Chambers gets no respect!!
So right ... if I remember correctly John Coltrane somewhere said what a privilege it was to play with Paul Chambers ... with Chambers in the band he could play anything, whatever, and it would always sound great ... I tried to google the quote but couldnt find it ... should be in the liner notes of some album rotting in some box I never open anymore because it is so easy to listen here instead ...
Well said. Chambers and Cobb were masters in the own right.
I had the great privilege of hearing these guys on tour in the spring of 1960 in Frankfurt, Germany. The group also included Cannonball Adderley. I had front row seats. I remember Miles getting upset with Coltrane during one of his wild improvisations and nudging him off with his trumpet. Crazy! Fantastic performance by all...………...
That might be the gig I posted here: ruclips.net/video/wpvATm-54_s/видео.html
Enjoy!
then you must be as old as Greece
That's awesome. Would love to have been there.
Didn't Coltrane tell Miles that he had a hard rime ending solos? To which Miles replied: Why don't you take the sax out of your mouth and sit down?

Thank you
One thing I love about Miles Davis is that he never chose sidemen for his bands ... he was always looking for musicians that have a different musical vision than himself
he was making Terrible choices by the early 80s
Miles Davis is partially responsible for the development of Coltrane, because he rarely told him what to play, in fact it was Miles Davis who gave John Coltrane his first soprano saxophone.
@@TvDaddyAndTheTabloidArmy Nope. Thats your Opinion, and thats a Fact.
@@eddiemperor I witnessed a few of them
@@TvDaddyAndTheTabloidArmy Who are you to judge what a terrible choice is? What terrible choices have you made because no one knows your name across the planet, Miles is immortal and revered across the planet forever..
26 min into listening to this again and fuck me, what an amazing set of music. What pisses me off is YT putting an advert in the middle of a solo 😡. ✌❤ to everyone.
deny adverts.
now this is what i call jazz...pure magic..love it

The 1950's and early 1960's is the best - from these greats . Thank You .
U can't create these kind of flawless sounds without...endless discipline!
DANKE!!
While the world increases its conflicts...its good to come home and chill and explore Jazz with this classic Miles band. And with all of you of all races. Jazz is universal and a unifier.
My uncle introduced me to Jazz at 13. In all its variations. It was like a college course. He told me that jazz lovers have a higher intelligence and can follow and interpret the music. I found out that that was factual, by various studies by academics.
I raise and tip my drink to all assembled here for this legendary set.
BLM rules
What studies show that jazz lovers have a higher intelligence and can follow and interpret the music? Let’s see a bibliography.
Concordo il jazz è una musica mondiale profonda che unisce i popoli per me il jazz è il futuro non è finita per niente questi eroi lo sapevano profondamente per questo ha resistito… avevano un compito importante.. chi studia questa musica ha uno strumento il più per capire la vita
@@TremendousSax Dont expect me to do your research for you. The data is out there.
@@dlxinfinite7098 You're operating in bad faith. If you make an assertion the burden of proof is on you to justify your claims.
Wynton Kelly’s comping was a huge part of why this group was so deeply swinging. Astounding!
Indeed, we mustn't underestimate Wynton, great solos in the shadow such huge giants, Coltrane an impossible act to follow!
And you could hear that he was inspired by his band mates and was exploring as well
Every solo Trane pushes the edge more and more, and every time he comes back to the head he advances it harmonically, genius ! The rhythm section and Miles follow suit. By the time they get to Oleo it is pure exploration.This is jazz history. Just my humble opinion
you are absolutely right, gonetop4
I agree regarding Coltrane but I can't wait for Miles to stop play and Coltrane starts
I agree. It reminds me of how five years later Wayne Shorter, though a different style player, was walking on the edge--and sometimes putting a foot over the edge--in the Plugged Nickle recordings. Great music in both live settings. 🙂👍🏼🤙🏽
@@Tutankhamen210 I own the CD boxset, it's outstanding
Coltrane's musical talent was unmatched.
... and remains unsurpassed for more than 5 decades since he's been gone.
Prior to the 20th Century, there was no such thing as Jazz. The great African American contribution to the world, admired by musicians and music lovers everywhere.
Etymologically true. Practically, not, unless u exclude Blues and Ragtime from the scope of jazz. Many don't.
I dreamed that they discovered a time machine ... and it would be so spectacular to see these geniuses in Paris.
I envy every person who attended this concert.
Rui Garcia couldn't agree more, sir
Agreed, This whole tour was something else.
give me 50 grand ill get you to your destination time travel is possible but it cost money mate..
with a quantum molecule cell displacement chamber any thing is possible.cells can be completely reformed in another time zone top scientists know this but its a one way trip ..
I was there, with my father in his days. Quite a shock to hear Trane live for the first time! He divided the audience. Dead supportive (my father and I) and stubbornly hostile (some prominent jazz critics at this time) History vindicated him!
Music is timeless,.... this is fresh as the new day. Genius is what these gentlemen were all about.
THANKS! Favorite era of jazz.
For those who haven't played jazz, this is about as incredible as it gets. It may sound like a lot of "noodling" and blue notes thrown in, but the level these guys are going to only sounds deceptively easy or abstract, they are Intentionally all over the place, because that is what it took to rise above and make something this beautiful and complex. This is pure genius. And all first takes, live in concert? THAT is how good these guys are. For that era, and for a live show, the audio is INCREDIBLY clear, so a giant 'thank you' to whoever recorded, mixed, and produced this!
"It doesn't have to 'sound' right, if I play it, it Is right."
83 years old and hearing this again for the first time in 20+ years, thank you GOD!!!
Enjoy it!
So well said Pal
Coltrane's solos are nothing short of amazing! Thanks for posting!
Timeless, thankful for the music that has been left for all of us to share and to enjoy
Coltrane always puts me in another world. I like Miles, but Coltrane just does it for me like no one else. He's always pulling from this spiritual realm with his playing

Coltrane paints brush strokes with his sax. Sound painting.
My goodness, this Coltrane guy can play!
20 years ago or so someone gave me a ripped CD with so what and o.g.d.s. from this concert, and i listened to them over and over. I really like coltrane's playing on those, the way he pours out those ribbons of notes and seems to imply a lot that isn't actually there by playing around it, letting out those tremendous low belches and man if you really follow along with him you go to some very strange places, like weird ecstatic expressionist fluxing paintings that ripple and burble and never stay still and they go from spooky and complex to joyful then just almost crazed, these are probably my favorite jazz solos of all time
This is fabulous....thanks for posting it
Miles and the band are blowing/playing their sit-downs off! YES!
Cobb alwsys kept it crisp and he will be missed
Miles and Coltrane?!!?
You gotta sit back and appreciate this classic collaboration. Magnificent share, thanks.

Love how Coltrane can speak the language of jazz with so many incredibly different dialects and technically awesome dialectal accents....

As a Guitarist/Bassist; pure clear preserved 60 year old jazz can be heard through the thick wound gaged bass string slapping against the Maple wood fret board while the Bassist enters into the lower register of his solo! Beautiful!
Low low lowlow

Everyone of the musicians are a perfect master. Thanks to who upload this video. This is great 😃👍
So Parker brings in Miles and Dizzy brings in Coltrane, love that these two got together just like Bird & Dizz;) Great upload, thanks!
Great point, Scott. It's fascinating to trace the lineages and interconnections of these cats. Coltrane played awhile in Diz's big band, a "decent" sideman. And when Bird brought Miles in, he could hardly play the bebop changes, although of course he learned quickly. Then the two Eagles came together, for a time.
I don't dare to answer no more . Thanks to F. B.
Can't go wrong with excellence
The audience claps, I just shake my head in awe of the superhuman prowess Coltrane displays in his solos throughout this concert.
Coltrane improvisational skills are impeccable
Percy Timberlake Just my opinion, but I think the rest of the ansamble bent around him....

Regrettably, "God" did not "bless" them - they both died heroin addicts.

An absolute gem
Masters at work
Honesty prevails in this gathering in Paris. Miles is at his best hosting the greatest and most inventive ando rythmically complex sax player. he is like the relentless current of a river.
Well said. 'Nough said.
Wynton Kelly"s solo on "So What" will always remain my favorite on any "So What" performance.
