And I picked up on it, but nobody else did. finish up featuring everyone in the trio with a Miles Davis number that's come to be associated with our group, because no one else seemed to pick up on it after it was written for a Cannonball date I did with Cannonball in 1958-he asked Miles to write a tune for the date, and Miles came up with this tune and it was kind of a new type of sound to contend with. The piece would come to be associated with Evans's future trios, which played it frequently. While Davis was not very satisfied with the performance, he said that from then on, Evans was the only one to play it in the way he wanted. In July 1958, Evans appeared as a sideman in Adderley's album Portrait of Cannonball, that featured the first performance of "Nardis", specially written by Davis for the session. Adderley left the band in September 1959 to pursue his own career, returning the line-up to a quintet. This group backing Davis, Coltrane, and Adderley, with Evans returning for the recording sessions, would make Kind of Blue, often considered the greatest jazz album of all time. In mid-1958, Bill Evans replaced Garland on piano and Jimmy Cobb replaced Jones on drums, but Evans too left after eight months, replaced by Wynton Kelly in late 1958. scale patterns other than major and minor.

Davis at this point was experimenting with modes-i.e. By 1958, the group consisted of John Coltrane on tenor saxophone, Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Philly Joe Jones on drums, and had just been expanded to a sextet with the addition of Cannonball Adderley on alto saxophone.Ĭoltrane's return to Davis’s group in 1958 coincided with the "modal phase" albums: Milestones (1958) and Kind of Blue (1959) are both considered essential examples of 1950s modern jazz. From 1955 to 1958, Miles Davis was leading what would come to be called his First Great Quintet.
