現代爵士樂從咆勃、酷派、硬式咆勃、調式爵士到融合樂歷經多次風潮轉變,而每一次皆能引領風騷留下不滅歷史印記的唯獨邁爾斯‧戴維斯一人,其貢獻及偉大不言可喻。1951年他戒毒成功復出後於素有「西岸藍調之音」之稱的Prestige威望唱片旗下發行個人第一張主要廠牌專輯,也開啟了其長久生涯的第一次顛峰,像是被認為是最早定義硬式咆勃風格的“Walkin'”,集結了霍瑞斯‧席佛、肯尼‧克拉克眾多名家,熱烈圓融的即興競演直叫人大呼過癮;“Bags' Groove”和桑尼‧羅林斯、米特‧傑克森等好手聯袂譜奏洋溢歡欣愉悅的搖擺音符,同樣引人入勝;最經典的則莫過於與約翰‧柯川、瑞德‧嘉蘭、保羅‧錢伯斯及菲利‧喬‧瓊斯組成的「第一代偉大五重奏」,五人渾然天成的默契與跌宕起伏精妙絕倫的合奏可以在“How Am I Know”、“My Funny Valentine”、“It Never Entered My Mind”等名演中聽見。戴維斯也自此時開始經常在吹奏小號時於前方加上弱音器,形成其調性晦澀隱約卻又有綿延繚繞效果的獨特招牌音色,「黑暗王子」的美名從此不脛而走,也讓年未滿三十的他迅速上位成為當時樂界最具代表性的人物。本套精美盒裝集結了戴維斯於Prestige威望唱片時期17次進入錄音室的全部珍貴成果,除羅列詳盡曲目資訊及富含珍稀照片,並特別邀請美國羅格斯大學爵士樂研究所所長唐摩根斯坦親筆撰寫長篇深入分析,想要完整體會一代宗師的超卓不凡,本套8CD大全集絕對是不容錯過的經典。
