Miles Ahead is an album by Miles Davis that was released in October 1957 by Columbia Records.[1][2] It was Davis' first collaboration with arranger Gil Evans following the Birth of the Cool sessions. Along with their subsequent collaborations Porgy and Bess (1959) and Sketches of Spain (1960), Miles Ahead is one of the most famous recordings of Third Stream, a fusion of jazz, European classical, and world musics.[3] Davis played flugelhorn throughout.
