The most satisfying sort of audacity was the rule with Miles Davis's second great quintet. One of six studio albums cut by the group between 1965 and 1968, Miles Smiles finds them executing three Wayne Shorter compositions and one by the leader, along with Eddie Harris's "Freedom Jazz Dance," former Davis cohort Jimmy Cobb's "Gingerbread Boy," and the usual mix of finesse and barreling momentum. Even when nodding toward the then-burgeoning hard-bop movement on the Harris piece, the group makes its own mark in a hundred different ways, from Herbie Hancock's spare touch to the thoroughly declarative solo Davis lays down. It's hard to pick the most exceptional cut on such a top-flight disc, but certainly Shorter's deceptively simple "Orbits" and "Footprints" deserve mention; on the former, the players take turns stating the melody and then rumbling over it. The latter's echoes of "Caravan" make way for an improv performance that not only hangs tough in itself, but seems to have provided a template for the entire early career of Wynton Marsalis. --Rickey Wright

5 out of 5 stars Miles Away.......2007-03-31

Yet another recording that marked the next movement in the career of the Last Great Jazz Giant. Picking up Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, Wayne Shorter & the lighting quick drummer Tony Williams, Miles was moving Jazz into the future which of course eventually led to his greatest period, the so-called 'electric' era. Stand out tracks on this great recording though is 'Circle', herbie is amazing on the keys, and 'Footprints' with it acoustic, yet African feel. Black musical intellect at its best.

5 out of 5 stars Miles' best 60's effort.......2006-12-13

Miles made some good records in the 60's (E.S.P.; Seven Steps to Heaven; plus In a Silent Way which is OK), but never matched this one. It's up there with Kind of Blue and 'Round About Midnight. Every song ranges from excellent, to captivating - the best points are Orbit; the lovely Circles and Dolores. One of Miles' best albums overall, which is certainly saying something.

5 out of 5 stars More In Common With Ornette Coleman's "Shape of Jazz to Come" Than Kind of Blue.......2006-11-15

Why do reviewers insist on comparing Miles Smiles to Kind of Blue? They are NOTHING alike other than both are incredible. Kind of Blue was more innovative to be sure.

The very first track on this disc, Orbits, has more in common with Ornette Coleman's The Shape of Jazz to Come than anything Miles did previously. It actually sounds like Ornette's music being played by much more highly skilled musicians.

All of the tracks are wonderful but Circle - it is just exquisite. Miles's phrasing, the lyrical sound he brings to his horn with the Harmon mute - it is the most expressive sound I have ever heard come from a horn.

If you are already a Miles fan, you must have this disc, you will not be disappointed. If you are just getting into Miles then I would start with Kind of Blue, maybe My Funny Valentine, Four and More, then ESP, and then Miles Smiles.

5 out of 5 stars Get your kicks in '66.......2006-07-23


The year 1965 is a howling blank as far as Miles Davis' development goes. Miles Davis discovered Wayne Shorter in late 1964, recorded the album E.S.P. with his new quintet in January 1965, and promptly disappeared from the world until Christmas. Miles had severe health problems, including a buildup of material on his hip joints, and a new addiction to cocaine.

On his return, Miles recorded the famous "Plugged Nickel" sessions, which for the first time showed him trying to break the boundaries of bebop. The band became freer; a less popular musician would have been labelled "avant-garde".
The rhythm section became fluid - Tony Williams could change from a 3/4 beat to a 4/4 and a 5/4, toy around with 6/8 and then 2/4, before layering a 3/4 beat on TOP of a 4/4! Herbie's comping is a quantum leap for jazz piano, playing "chords" that hang suspended in space, like a dandelion seed refusing to land. Meanwhile, Wayne Shorter and Miles play with a suspension of chord structure and a much freer atttitude to rhythm and phrasing.

The "Second Great Quintet" entered the studios in 1966 and recorded Miles Smiles. The performances are near-perfect, a sample of the peak of acoustic jazz as it was in its dying days.

Listen to the reinvention of the tune "Caravan" in "Footprints", a Shorter tune with a memorable bass line. Listen to the freedom of Miles' soloing in "Circle" (a.k.a. "Drad Dog"), and Herbie Hancock's classical lines in the same piece. Listen to the startling Wayne Shorter solo in "Freedom Jazz Dance", with its trademark howling phrases.

This is an album that is a little hard to take for a newcomer. But if you liked "Kind of Blue", and want to see Miles Davis' greatest achievement of the 1960s, get this album!

5 out of 5 stars Classic.......2006-06-05

This is an excellent example of Miles Davis later band's work, however Miles Davis did only write one song on here(he is still probably the bandleader)...Wayne Shorter writes most of the album and he is excellent on here. This is really a classic with the opening "Orbit", which is accurately named.

Just buy this album, it is classic.

          5 out of 5 stars Great.......2005-06-26

          These are two great pieces by my favourite band, Black Dice. Black Dice are forever pushing the boundaries of sound and it's relation to melody and music. Finding strange and beautiful noises whatever they do... Keep up the great work!

          3 out of 5 stars interesting, but a bit of a letdown. .......2004-07-27

          black dice's drummer left. one would think their compositions would still sparkle celestial, but the lack of powerful drumming dramaticlly takes away from their sound. sonically, these two compositions are fascinating - and the sheer exuberance the black dice approach the compositions with remains as infectious here as on the beaches and canyons lp and the cone toaster 12". While both pieces are interesting, it often times fails at engaging the listener.

          However this judgement may be inaccurate as the music was meant to be heard as part of an installation and may be very effective in its prepared enviorment.
