The Miles Davis Quintet – Live In Europe 1967 (The Bootleg Series Vol. 1) (5xLP, Deluxe Boxset)

The explosive transformation of Miles Davis' "second great quintet" with Wayne Shorter (tenor saxophone), Herbie Hancock (piano), Ron Carter (bass) and Tony Williams (drums) is revealed on Live In Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Vol. 1.

This 5-LP box set comes from original government television and radio sources in Belgium, Denmark and France and includes three Northern European festival performances spanning nine days in October / November 1967. The audio shows consist entirely of previously unreleased or pirated material. Miles' quintet line-up from 1965 to '68 is considered one of the most important reference points in 20th century jazz, and its influence reverberates in small group jazz to this day, and it was the quintet's live performances, as they evolved into Miles' ideal of a 'leaderless' jamming ensemble, that truly immortalized them.

Live In Europe 1967: The Bootleg Series Vol. 1 is the best historical album of 2012 according to the 2012 Downbeat Critics Poll.
