"Relaxin' with the Miles Davis Quintet" is a masterpiece in every form
Miles Davis (trumpet) founded the band in 1955 with his colleagues John Coltrane (tenor saxophone), Red Garland (piano), Paul Chambers (bass) and Philly Joe Jones (drums)
At that time they were not yet among the big names in the business
"Relaxing with the Miles Davis Quintet" and its counterparts from the Prestige series (Cookin', Workin' and Steamin' with the Miles Davis Quintet) re-established Miles Davis in the upper jazz league
From that point on, he and his quintet belonged to the small group of the best jazz combos ever
The recording got the name Relaxin' because of the ballad-like execution and various very light parts
The album is definitely one of Miles Davis' most lively works and one of the best examples of outstanding jazz quintets of the 20th century
