Description
Early U.S. 1957 pressing from the Columbia 6-eye era of Miles Ahead, arranged and conducted by Gil Evans — a cornerstone recording in the Miles Davis canon and one of the defining orchestral jazz albums of the era.
This is not a modern reissue or later two-eye pressing — it is the early Columbia 6-eye red label mono edition with catalog number CL 1041, pressed in the United States. A must-have for any vinyl enthusiast or jazz collector looking to add a piece of music history to their collection.
