Tracks list

       The 2013 box set The Original Mono Recordings, brings together all nine
of the albums the legendary jazz trumpeter recorded for Columbia that were
originally released in mono, including 1957's 'Round About Midnight, 1957's
Miles Ahead, 1958's Milestones, 1959's Jazz Track, 1959's Porgy and Bess, 1959's
Kind of Blue, 1960's Sketches of Spain, 1961's Someday My Prince Will Come, and
1964's Miles & Monk at Newport. Remastered using the original master tapes and
with pristine versions of the LPs as comparative benchmarks for sound, these
mono versions have a warmth and immediacy that, at the very least, match the
stereo versions, and to some ears may even outdo them. Prior to 1959, all of
Davis' recordings for Columbia were released in mono. Which means that, although
stereo became a popular format during the '60s, most listeners first heard these
landmark albums in mono. In fact, mono was considered the most faithful and
purest representation of how the music sounded in the studio. There is some
logic to this notion, as the aim was to present the music in the truest regard
to the overall sound of the band in the studio. Subsequently, there is less
post-production trickery involved on the mono versions. There is also a clarity
and depth to the sound quality on these albums, especially when it comes to the
piano and bass, that stands apart from previous stereo versions. It's as if you
can see farther into the recording, revealing a fuller aural picture of the band
as a whole. For some listeners this may not matter, but ultimately, for others,
it will mean that these mono remasters, whether bought individually or as a part
of this box set, will be must-have additions to their collections.
