AllMusic Review
V.S.O.P.: The Quintet Review by Richard S.
Ginell
With the cheers and huzzahs from their 1976
one-off reunion still resounding, the
reconstituted Miles Davis Quintet minus Miles
went on the road in 1977, spreading their
1965-vintage gospel according to the Prince
of Darkness to audiences in Berkeley and San
Diego, CA. In doing so, Herbie Hancock,
Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter, and Tony
Williams, plus interloper Freddie Hubbard
seem to pick up where they left off, with a
repertoire mostly new to the five collectively
and developed from there. It isn't exactly the
same -- you miss Miles' brooding presence
and sense of space in Hubbard's busy, fiery
playing, and Hancock is a more harmonically
daring, assertive player than he was with
Miles -- but the interlocking telepathy and
individual virtuosity of the musicians is pretty
amazing. This also isn't the best tape from the
tour; they were even tighter and more volatile
in Japan five days later on Sony's Tempest in
the Colosseum. The V.S.O.P. tours amount to
a pit stop in the general shape of Hancock's
evolution, but their influence upon the
direction of jazz as a whole in the '80s and
'90s would be staggering.
