Wednesday, May 8th at 9pm:
The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present Origin of Animal compiling its largest group to date performing Miles Davis' "Birth of The Cool", released in 1957.

ALBUM BACKGROUND:
"These three sessions -- two from early 1949, one from March 1950 -- are where the sound known as cool jazz essentially formed, Birth of the Cool remains one of the defining, pivotal moments in jazz. This is where the elasticity of bop was married with skillful, big-band arrangements and a relaxed, subdued mood that made it all seem easy, even at its most intricate...The virtuosity led to relaxing, stylish mood music as the end result -- the very thing that came to define West Coast or "cool" jazz -- but this music is so inventive, it remains alluring even after its influence has been thoroughly absorbed into the mainstream" ~Stephen Thomas Erlewine
