Notes:
There is a slight amount of static/hiss present in this recording.
Most of the Bob Garrity anouncements have been cut from this source.
There are gaps between the tracks.
The quality of this performance by Miles Davis exhibits a marked
decline from previous years due to his hitting bottom with his heroin addiction. According to biographical sources no one was more aware of this than Miles himself, and it was in the winter of 1953-1954 that he returned to
East St. Louis and locked himself in a guest room in his father's farm for seven days until the drug was fully out of his system.
