Abstract

Abstract Miles Davis’s “In Person, Friday and Saturday Nights” was recorded at the Black Hawk in San Francisco. I am reviewing it as a two-record set, but each LP is available singly, as Friday Night, consisting of the first six titles above, and Saturday Night, the last six. The recording is generally very good, except that, to my ears, Davis’s intimately close-miked sound is on the verge of distortion (without quite making it) on Fran-Dance and If I Were a Bell. One other flaw is also apparently technical, a decided drop in tempo between Davis’s opening solo in All of Me and Wynton Kelly’s solo-a tape splice it would seem.
