Long story short, I'd like a copy of Miles Davis' soundtrack (on CD), searched but am stumped.

Is there a "best" version anyone could recommend?

It's very easy to find. The legit version is on Polydor and sounds great.

Thanks to both of you!

One other question: the 60th anniversary set (with the one extra track)...is the sound comparable to the expanded Polygram program? I know, only one track, but (via YouTube) it's a nice one, so I'm wondering if a little extra $ will make the 60th a worthwhile choice...

Try to see the film as well. It’s a great little thriller with a clever premise and plot and a chance to see some fantastic contemporary cars. The music works very well.

I think I will, thanks. Sounds like something I'd be interested in.

What a fantastic score.

Never scored a film before. He just watched the film and with improvised.

Miles Davis was truly one of the geniuses of the 20th Century.

Yes, it's a masterpiece. One of the finest film scores ever written.
