Miles Davis' classic LP 'Round About Midnight + 2 bonus tracks pressed on 180g purple vinyl, includes new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide To Jazz's writer Brian Morton and Paris' prestigious Jazz Magazine

"It's a contentious issue, but there is little argument that with 'Round About Midnight, for all its implied conservatism and the awkward circumstances of its making, Miles created an album of almost perfect aesthetic balance, looking backward and forward, as he always did, with equal affection." - Penguin Guide to Jazz

"The release of this album in 1957 marked one of the high points of a tremendously prolifc period for Miles Davis. In a few years, the trumpeter would forever imprint his name among the great leaders in the history of jazz by signing a series of major albums, which would be of tremendous importance both for him and for his contemporaries." - Jazz Magazine, Paris
