ive heard...and sold a lot of the miles davis MOV. I grew to not like the mastering decisions on nearly every single one.
I have to say, this one is the best of the bunch in my opinion. It is one of my demo records for testing gear.

Mine has PC 9628 on front cover, spine and labels, but KCS 9628 on back cover. I think its this version - does anyone else have that variation?

Weird.. Mine has a higher number (6000s) than the one in the pics of this listing but still carrying the previous labeling in the back cover as Miles Davis - Miles In The Sky.
Anyways the sound is as awesome as my other Miles Mofis. Great mastering

No joke, I almost started drooling. Highly recommend for a beautiful sounding pressing and good price.

Amazing balance and incredible pressing. Great drumming from Tony Williams. Wayne Shorter plays so clearly. George Benson fills perfectly on Paraphernalia. Herbie shows off so magnificently.

This pressing is absolutely stunning. Maybe the best sounding Miles original Columbia release. Still a decent bargain - get one if you can.

Does anyone know for sure if this is a fold-down or a dedicated mono mix?? I'm assuming it is a fold-down but cannot find anything definitive.

This record sounds fantastic! Underrated Miles album IMO.

The separation, instrument details and dynamics are great. Fat bass, clear cymbals and Miles trumpet is killer.
