About this pressing

Released in 1972 on Prestige, Tallest Trees is a 2×LP compilation that brings together some of Miles Davis’s formative sessions from the late 1940s and early 1950s. These recordings show Davis in transition — moving from bebop fire into the cooler, more lyrical phrasing that would shape his later innovations.

The set includes performances with key figures of the era, including Sonny Rollins, Jackie McLean, and Art Blakey, highlighting the collaborative spirit of the post-bop years. While not a studio concept album, this collection offers invaluable insight into Davis’s growth as both trumpeter and bandleader.

For collectors and newcomers alike, Tallest Trees is a fascinating snapshot of Miles Davis before the monumental Kind of Blue era.
