I've still got the LP - not superfluous, if I want to hear it again the way
it was heard for decades, since the master tape had been recorded too fast
and the music sounded slightly different (a quarter tone) when it was
remastered a few years ago. It's almost as much Bill Evans's record as
Miles's.
Nice tribute, Doug.
