Miles Davis "The Man With The Horn" 1981

Miles Davis' first comeback record finds the trumpeter a bit shaky (he would improve album by album during the next few years) and has a few poppish throwaway tracks;..
...it is doubtful if anyone really remembers the title cut or "Shout." But with Bill Evans on soprano and electric bassist Marcus Miller, the other four selections are more rewarding with Davis forming the nucleus of his new band. - Review by Scott Yanow
members:
Trumpet – Miles Davis / Bass [Fender] – Felton Crews + Marcus Miller / Drums – Al Foster + Vincent Wilburn / Guitar – Barry Finnerty / Percussion – Sammy Figueroa / Soprano Saxophone – Bill Evans

trax:
1 Fat Time 2 Back Seat Betty 3 Shout 4 Aïda 5 The Man With The Horn 6 Ursula

This music is dedicated to the tradition of Johnny Diego's Rock 'n' Roll Free Sunday!

Thanks for the Miles & best regards to you you, RYP (& the never really forgotten great Johnny Diego)! TC
P.S. Never mind today's prospective German election results, sigh ...

Mein Favorit, "Die Partei" wird sowieso auf keinen grünen Zweig kommen, weil Humor ist, wenn man trotzdem lacht, hierzulande nicht sehr populär ist!
