Miles Davis – 'Round About Midnight

Miles Davis – ‘Round About Midnight

‘Round About Midnight is a landmark album in Miles Davis’ career: his first release for Columbia Records and an early statement of where modern jazz was heading. Recorded across several sessions in New York between 1955 and 1956, the album captures Davis with his quintet — including John Coltrane on tenor sax — in a setting that feels both intimate and quietly revolutionary.

Centred around the haunting title track, the record balances cool restraint with deep emotion. Miles’ trumpet is spacious and expressive, letting silence do as much work as sound, while the band moves with subtle confidence throughout. ‘Round About Midnight isn’t flashy or showy — it’s thoughtful, elegant and endlessly influential. A true jazz classic and a perfect entry point into Miles Davis’ world.
