I think Evans playing on this is amazing. No disrespect to Miles. His playing on this is some of the most plaintive and emotionally expressive I've ever heard. But it's Evans' modal harmonic foundation that really makes the piece work.

That has Paul Chambers on bass. Hometown boy and perhaps the greatest jazz bassist of them all.
