Jazz sleeper picks: Miles Davis

By Pico: Another in a series of overlooked jazz classics. This time we look at diamonds in the rough by perhaps the single most influential figure in jazz since World War II: Miles Davis.

A high profile artist whose work has been picked apart as much as Davis' won't have a lot of unturned stones despite some 45+ years of recording history. In fact, his entire Columbia catalogue from 'Round Midnight’ in 1955 to 'Bitches Brew' in 1969 has been well regarded for many years now and are generally very easy to obtain; much of the same recordings even show up in different releases.

So, we'll ignore that big chunk to concentrate on albums outside the so-called golden era.
