E.S.P.

by Miles Davis

E.S.P. cover art

The landmark debut album of the Second Great Miles Davis Quintet, 'E.S.P.' represents the sound of a new musical language being forged. Featuring the brilliant compositions of Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock, the music is abstract, harmonically ambiguous, and rhythmically elastic. The quintet stretches traditional song forms to their limits without ever fully breaking them, showcasing a stunning, telepathic interplay that would redefine small group jazz for the next decade.
