Louis Smith – I Waited For You (SCCD 31385)

SCCD 31385 I Waited For You / Louis Smith Quintet

Veteran trumpeter Louis Smith and young talent on alto Vincent Herring toured Europe in the spring of 1995. The theme of their concerts was a Tribute To Miles. Later in the year, Louis and Vincent got together again in the studio with one of the finest New York rhythm section to record the Miles Davis programme.
