Miles Davis Turns Balladic on My Funny Valentine: Live Album Is Distinguished with Deep Emotions, Spontaneous Brilliance, Poetic Elegance, and Sensitive Beauty Mastered at MoFi's California Studio and Pressed on MoFi SuperVinyl for Reference Sound: Mobile Fidelity's 180g 33RPM SuperVinyl LP 60th Anniversary-Edition Reissue of the 1965 Set Plays with Lifelike Clarity, Balanced Tones, and Acoustic Intimacy My Funny Valentine: Miles Davis in Concert marks several historic turning points. 

For Davis, the live album represents the final time on record he'd perform standards rather than original compositions. It also stands as one of the last documents made by the same band that created Seven Steps to Heaven. As such, the work teems with bebop melodicism yet steers clear of Davis' oft-controversial avant-garde leanings. Most significantly, the richly textured set - the bookend to the fast-paced Four & More - captures the warm ballads and delicate pieces performed at a February 12, 1964 benefit concert at New York's then-new Philharmonic Hall that occurred just months after President Kennedy's assassination.

Seemingly channeling divine inspiration, Davis never sounded more elegant or poetic, particularly given the uniqueness of this 60th Anniversary Edition pressing. Mastered at MoFi's California studio, housed in a Stoughton jacket, pressed at Fideltiy Record Pressing on MoFi SuperVinyl, and strictly limited to 3, 000 numbered copies, Mobile Fidelity's 180g 33RPM SuperVinyl LP plays with stunning depth, presence, dynamics, clarity, and ambience. Benefitting from SuperVinyl's low-as-possible noise floor and superb groove definition, this audiophile LP boasts balances, tonalities, and airiness that duplicate the experience of witnessing live jazz in an acoustically ideal hall.

The images of each individual instrument, the decay of the notes, the inner reaches of the piano, and symmetry of the horns are rendered with palpable detail. Held as a benefit to support voter registration in the South - and a fundraiser for NAACP, the Congress of Racial Equality, and SNCC - the concert came amidst the height of the Civil Rights movement, a cause dear to Davis' heart. The unforeseen circumstances surrounding Kennedy's death further raised the stakes. Having professed admiration for Kennedy years prior, Davis appears to approach the compositions on My Funny Valentine (in particular, the title track) as an homage to the fallen leader.

Nearing their one-year anniversary together, he and his band turned half the event into a collective soliloquy comprised of pieces shot through with deeply emotional passages, spontaneous brilliance, sensitive beauty, and sublime poignancy. Elegiac moods permeate these performances; Davis and his Harmon mute paint with intricate brushstrokes. Pianist Herbie Hancock, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer Tony Williams are their leader's equal. They would continue with Davis until later in the decade, helping form his Second Great Quintet.

But the secret weapon on My Funny Valentine arrives in the form of tenor saxophonist George Coleman, whom jazz experts Brian Morton and Richard Cook deem 'one of the unsung heroes of modern jazz.' His lines are subtle and sophisticated, straight-ahead but capable of unanticipated direction. Here, Coleman comes into his own. The combination of introspective chemistry, lyrical reach, and telepathic communication demonstrated by the group on My Funny Valentine exceeds that of any of Davis' live 1960s efforts. One listen confirms something special transpiring. And on this breathtaking reissue, those properties are rendered in a manner that's as transparent to the source. Here's your chance to experience them again and again.

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more. I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.

Pretty Darn Good
Format: Kindle
So I’ve been on a omega kick and this definitely hit the spot. Madison was frustrating at times with how she acted towards Lucas, Gray, and Rian. It was like she said towards the end, she didn’t believe she deserved nice things. It would have been nice to hear from her best friends again. They kind of were there in the beginning and the gone except for mention of text messages received from them. I feel like her friends would have been great help in encouraging Madison to go with the pack and never give Brent another chance because he was toxic. I loved Rian. His personality was awesome. His humor. His ability to make Madison comfortable whenever she was feeling overwhelmed. And the fact he fell for her and she fell for him first. They are cute together. I do feel like Lucas was the odd man out though. Like Lucas didn’t develop as much of a relationship with Madison. I would have really liked to see more development in the relationship between them. It was also the same with him and Rian. There is really no relationship displayed. Most of the relationship being displayed is between Rian and Gray. Nevertheless, I loved reading about the dynamic that came to fruition during the entirety of this story. Madison finally got her happiness. And Brent finally got punched in the face. Everyone got exactly what they deserve.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat
