There are three alternate takes on this reissue. Each possesses a full, rich sound quality. It's interesting to compare, as the solo order changes from track to track. Typically, Coltrane starts it off, Davis bares his intended aim, and Adderley draws inspiration from both. For this milestone album, Davis used no mutes, no electronics, and no echo.
Milestones is a seminal album that helped shape jazz history.
