Birth of the Cool

Davis (right center) playing in [[Charlie Parker ''Birth of the Cool'' is a compilation album by the American jazz trumpeter and bandleader Miles Davis, released in February 1957 by Capitol Records. February 1957 is confirmed as the time of release in Ashley Kahn's ''Miles Davis: The Complete Illustrated History'', Marc Myers' ''Why Jazz Happened'', John S. Davis' ''Historical Dictionary of Jazz'', and Chris Smith's ''101 Albums That Changed Popular Music''.}} It compiles eleven tracks recorded by Davis's nonet for the label over the course of three sessions during 1949 and 1950.

Featuring unusual instrumentation and several notable musicians, the music consisted of innovative arrangements influenced by Afro-American music and classical music techniques, and marked a major development in post-bebop jazz. As the title suggests, these recordings are considered seminal in the history of cool jazz. Most of them were originally released in the 10-inch 78-rpm format and are all approximately three minutes long. Provided by Wikipedia
