The Miles Davis Quintet's 1960 European tour marked the end of the most dynamic front line partnership since Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker. This edition features the quintet's complete April 8, 1960 performance at Kongresshaus, in Zurich, Switzerland. Miles and Trane really stretched out on these tunes, averaging about 14 minutes per song! This release also contains four bonus tracks of Davis and Coltrane accompanied by Bill Evans, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones at New York's Café Bohemia on May 17, 1958. We feel extremely fortunate to be able to include this phenomenal rare performance in this edition.
