Down At Dawn presents a reissue of The Gil Evans Orchestra's Great Jazz Standards Featuring John Coles, originally released in 1959. This is a highly recommended set from the superb Gil Evans Orchestra, seeing the group playing stand-out arrangements of five jazz standards and a couple of originals. For this date, Evans recruited a 15-piece band including some great soloists such as trumpeter Johnny Coles, trombonist Curtis Fuller, the young soprano sax player Steve Lacy and last but not least a pair of differently great drummers in Denis Charles and Elvin Jones. Edition of 300.

"Originally released in 1960, this album is widely considered to be Evans' masterpiece, on par with Duke Ellington in terms of orchestration, and essential listening for any jazz fan. Evans had spent the previous few years recording with Miles Davis on such acclaimed works as Miles Ahead, Porgy and Bess and Sketches Of Spain, a collaboration which proved to be extremely enriching for both men. This LP was Evans' first post-Miles recording, and the album's title, Out Of The Cool, is an obvious nod to that fact (a play on Davis' own Birth Of The Cool). The album showcases two significant Evans compositions, the groundbreaking 'La Nevada' and 'Sunken Treasure.'" Remastered and pressed on 180 gram audiophile DMM HQ virgin vinyl, 45 rpm.
