About
Blue Moods is the second studio album by Miles Davis. It was released on Charles Mingus' Debut Records label in late 1955 (DEB 120). A just four piece record brings Miles Davis on trumpet together with Charles Mingus on bass, trombonist Britt Woodman, vibraphonist Teddy Charles, and drummer Elvin Jones. Considering the volatile temperaments of the two protagonists (Mingus & Miles), the music is surprisingly calm. From the back of sleeve: “This recording was cut at 160 liners per inch (instead of the usual 210 to 260 lines per inch) making the grooves wider and deeper and allowing for more area between the grooves for recording the bass frequencies. This allows for a wider excursion of the needle, giving more level and more bass than on the usual LP and was deemed necessary to reproduce the extended bass and give the listener more quality to that of high fidelity tape recording.”.
