Miles Davis – Sketches of Spain (Mobile Fidelity 180g 33RPM Vinyl LP)
Miles Davis and arranger Gil Evans’ final collaboration, Sketches of Spain (1960), stands as a masterpiece of mood, melody, and imagination. Blending flamenco-inspired themes with lush orchestral arrangements and Davis’ lyrical trumpet phrasing, the album bridges classical, jazz, and world traditions into one timeless statement of beauty and restraint.
Sourced from the original master tapes and pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing, Mobile Fidelity’s numbered-edition 180g LP unveils a new level of depth and warmth. Evans’ sweeping orchestrations and Davis’ Harmon-muted trumpet are presented with breathtaking clarity, expansive soundstaging, and microdynamic detail that reveal every tonal shade and subtle nuance.
An audiophile essential, this definitive reissue restores the album’s full emotional and sonic palette—its romantic melancholy, vivid color, and cinematic scope—making Sketches of Spain sound more intimate, expressive, and alive than ever before.
