What began as a holiday residency at Chicagos Plugged Nickel Caf became the crucible where the Second Great Quintet forged its identity. Miles, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams delivered a masterclass in risk and invention, dismantling familiar tunes and rebuilding them on the fly. Producer Teo Macero captured every note across seven sets on December 22 and 23, 1965. Portions trickled out in the 70s and 80s, but only in the early 90s did Legacy CD and Mosaic LP reveal the full scope of seven and half hours of revelatorymusicinstantly hailed as one of the greatest live jazz recordings ever, earning the Penguin Jazz Guides coveted Crown, and becoming pricey, secondarymarket rarities. Now, 30 years later and six decades after the shows themselves, veteran fans finally get the repress theyve demanded, and new fans get a chance to own one of the most mythologized live engagementsin jazz history. This new 10LP edition mirrors the original sequence, cut from the highres Mosaic masters and pressed on 140gram black vinyl. Each LP comes in its own newly designed jacket, housed in a gold foilembossed slipcase box. The 44 page 12x12 Smyth Sewn book includes rare Plugged Nickel photos and extensive new liner notes and trackbytrack commentary by Syd Schwartz alongside Bob Blumenthals original essay.
