Miles Davis's 'Round About Midnight marks his first Columbia recording and introduces a remarkable band featuring John Coltrane, Red Garland, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones. The album’s title track, known for its muted trumpet, debuted to great acclaim at the Newport Jazz Festival. Though this lineup dissolved soon after, the album captures a pivotal moment as Davis transitioned from cool jazz and hard bop toward new musical directions.
