"This is a very exciting concert and a rare document with both Sonny Stitt and Miles Davis. They are both in excellent form and the stylistic tension between the two at this transition in Miles' music is right there to an attentive listener. I loved the way Miles pushes in a modal direction and Stitt responds with a little nod in that harmonic direction, but with the most impressive virtuosity and intense swing, as if to say "I hear what you are saying, you call bebop "old fashioned"...but what do you think of this !!""
