In 1968, the last purely acoustic album of the second Miles Davis Quintet was released. "Nefertiti" is a quiet album of fine nuances, on which the musicians listen to each other wonderfully and at the same time are still committed to the tradition of Hard Bob. Jazz connoisseurs call "Nefertiti" the last and necessary step Davis had to take before he could devote himself to fusion jazz. Featured are Miles Davis on trumpet, Wayne Shorter on tenor sax, Herbie Hancock on piano, Ron Carter on bass and Tony Williams on drums.
The transformation of the tapes into DSD for Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab was done by Shawn R. Britton on the Gain2 system in Sebastopol, and you can hear the quietness from which the music emerges better than on any previous release.
