0029 Miles Davis - Nefertiti
(USA, 1968, post-bop / modal jazz)

Not my favorite of Davis' albums, but I feel like I've just scratched the surface. I have only 11 of his albums in my collection, and it looks like he's got about 60 studio releases. It's just kind of daunting. Anyway, this album--maybe it's because it's not got any Davis compositions on it is why I don't rate it as highly as I do his later jazz fusion stuff. We got Herbie Hancock on piano, so that's a plus. After a re-listen to this, I'm going to have to check out some of Anthony Williams' and Wayne Shorter's music. I enjoy how the lazy horns are juxtaposed with the drum-roll type percussion on the title track.
