Kind of Now - The Pulse of Miles Davis
This all-new all-star tribute to Miles and his music was recorded under the expert leadership of Gregory Hutchinson, “the drummer of his generation” according to Jazz Magazine. The album arrives just in time for the centenary of one of the most innovative, influential, iconic and acclaimed figures in the history of music. Its ten state-of-the-art interpretations of classic Milesiana range from the trumpeters Bebop origins in the 1950s all the way to the electric openness he spearheaded with “Bitches Brew” in 1970, while the three “Hutch” originals are as much grounded in these origins of everything we call Jazz today as they open a new chapter. Â
The overall quality and density of Kind of Now - The Pulse of Miles Davis has everything to do with the musicians involved, a great group of young legends and lions carefully selected by the leader, just the way Miles used to do: Ambrose Akinmusire (trumpet), Ron Blake (tenor saxophone, bass clarinet), Jakob Bro (guitar), Emmanuel Michael (guitar), Gerald Clayton (piano) Joe Sanders (double bass) Gregory Hutchinson’s “Kind of Now - The Pulse of Miles Davis” is a fascinating and highly rewarding album that breathes new life into some of the immortal classics from Miles Davis’ repertoire, such as Charlie Parker’s “Ah-Leu-Cha” or Miles’ own “Seven Steps to Heaven”, discounting the obvious while closing in on the deep
