”Milestones” is Davis”s recording in a sextet configuration with John Coltrane, Paul Chambers, Cannonball Adderley, Philly Joe Jones and Red Garland. This 1958 masterpiece captured Davis”s modalism, which, introduced on this album, continues to influence the genre globally. It is the last studio session to reunite the rhythm section of Garland, Chambers and Jones. (Jones was both Garland and Chambers, and left the group shortly after being hired.) On this album, Davis begins to explore (particularly on the title track) the type of modal jazz that he would later adopt and popularize on the album ”Kind of Blue”.
