Miles Davis Kind of Blue 2022

A tribute to Miles Davis. The music of an icon, re-imagined, with elements from modern jazz and orchestral arrangements by Magnus Lindgren and Hans Ek. Featuring US-American trumpeter Theo Croker and his quartet and members of the Berliner Philharmoniker.

Duffy Power (1941-2014) was among Britain’s first wave of late 50s rock’n’rollers, a protégé of impresario Larry Parnes alongside Billy Fury, Marty Wilde and Georgie Fame. In 1963, a musical epiphany saw him become one of Britain’s greatest bluesmen – an intensely soulful singer, songwriter and harmonica virtuoso whose career thereafter would be a rollercoaster of amazing recordings, off/on record deals, and periods of withdrawal before bowing out of music-making in 1973. In the mid-60s, Duffy recorded with future members of Cream, Pentangle and the Mahavishnu Orchestra. He never had any problem impressing fellow musicians, but a wider appreciation of his work would only come in the CD era.
