The Columbia Years: '62-'68

:Album Description:Japanese limited edition 20bit mastered 6 CD box set. Limited edition for initial pressing only. Pre order basis only! :By 1965 Miles Davis had gone through a handful of stages, from the Birth of the Cool nonet's multihued orchestrations to the development of a hard-bop sound keeled on Davis's midregister wooziness and the band's driving backbone in the 'first' great quintet (featuring John Coltrane), to the modal freedom of Kind of Blue.
