Wax Love present a reissue of Miles Davis's Seven Steps To Heaven, originally released in 1963. Late 1962 and early 1963 were a period of transition for Miles Davis. He had health issues and his original quintet from the 1950s was on its last legs. He played with a variety of hired hands while working on assembling a new quintet. Seven Steps To Heaven collected various recordings from LA and New York, and the New York recordings are particularly interesting because they feature the 17-year-old Tony Williams, as well as Ron Carter, and Herbie Hancock, three of the brilliant players that would make up Davis's working quintet for the next several years. While comprised of various players and sessions, Seven Steps To Heaven is still a beautiful album from the legendary trumpet player well worthy of inclusion among his finest works.
