Cannonball Adderley feat. Miles Davis ” Autumn Leaves”
Somethin’ Else is a 1958 album by jazz musician Julian “Cannonball” Adderley, regarded as a landmark album in the hard bop and cool styles. This critically-acclaimed album is notable for the presence and prominent contributions of Miles Davis, in one of his few recording dates for Blue Note Records. Many critics and jazz fans consider Somethin’ Else to be among the greatest jazz albums of all time.
When alto saxophonist Cannonball Adderley culled together this quartet, he grabbed three champions from seemingly disparate schools to complement his flinty solos: Miles Davis, the king of cool; Art Blakey, the thundering force of hard bop; Hank Jones, a veteran of swing; and Sam Jones, a versatile bassist adaptable to nearly any setting. The results are one of Blue Note’s most beloved albums. The open-ended beauty of “Autumn Leaves,” which features Davis beautifully stating the melody on muted trumpet, sounds like it could easily be an outtake from Kind of Blue (which it isn’t). The midtempo title track provides the centerpiece of this classic as Adderley echoes Miles’s swaggering melody before both unravel wonderful solos.
Cannonball Adderley…Sax, Miles Davis…Trumpet, Sam Jones…Double Bass, Hank Jones…Piano…Art Blakey…Drums. From the 1958 album Somethin’ Else.

I remember the thundering rep of the Miles Davis quintet, from Kind of Blue. It was nice to see Cannon as leader on this date, thought I at the time, in my dorm at University of Florida. Yep, I’m a geezer, and it takes me back to the first time I heard that memorable intro.

hard bop was the reaction or answer on the east coast to the cool jazz movement that was going on in the west coast. Its a much harder style with srong r&b and gospel overtones
