• All of the surviving music from the Miles Davis Quintet’s Newport sets of 1966 and 1967 - all previously unissued. Both sets were taken from the original live radio broadcasts and present exactly the same personnel.

• As a bonus, this disc adds the only two surviving tracks from the same quintet’s performance in Helsinki on November 1, 1967.

• Miles Davis’ music was (as almost always throughout his career) going through a transitional period in 1966. His quintet, featuring Shorter, Hancock, Carter and Williams, was on the verge of removing standards from the repertoire, to make room for Miles’ compositions, and the group itself would soon change from an acoustic to an electric format.

• Personnel : Miles Davis, trumpet; Wayne Shorter, tenor sax; Herbie Hancock, piano; Ron Carter, bass; Tony Williams, drums - live at the Newport Jazz Festival, Festival Field, Newport, Rhode Island. recorded by VOA Radio Broadcasts (Willis Conover, announcer). Bonus tracks: same personnel. Yleisradio broadcast, Kulttuuritalo, Helsinki, Finland, November 1, 1967.

• Total Time: 62:25 - 8 tracks - Includes 16-page booklet.
