 onesjazz.co.uk\n\nMiles Davis and his sidemen (Bill Evans\, John Coltrane\
 , Cannonball Adderley\, Jimmy Cobb and Paul Chambers) made musical history
  when they recorded the iconic album Kind of Blue. They created a unique a
 tmosphere of understated themes and improvisations and Kind of Blue went o
 n to become one of the greatest and best loved jazz recordings of all time
 \n\n60 odd years on Terry Seabrook has assembled a group of musicians to r
 e-visit the album and perform it in its entirety. In addition they will pe
 rform some new arrangements of other classic Davis music along with a suit
 e by Terry Seabrook commissioned for the 2010 Brighton Festival entitled S
 ketches Of Miles\n\nIt is 63 years since the release of Kind of Blue. On D
 ec 19th 2009 the US congress voted to recognize it as a national treasure 
 and urged the protection and promotion of jazz.\n\nTerry Seabrook’s Mile

 t\,  a joy to behold\, brilliantly thought out concept and programme\, gr
 eat players who respectfully delivered such revered music\, putting their

 Mike Chadwick\, Band on the Wall\, Manchester (audience:170)\n\nThank you 
 for the gig Terry\, it was great turnout and everyone loved it. Nick Wells
 \, The Apex Bury St Edmunds (audience:250)\n\n Milestones are quite simpl
 y a breath of fresh air. They make the music of Miles Davis come alive in 
 front of you as they perform the classic Kind of Blue album along with own
  self-penned tributes to the legendary trumpeter. Guaranteed to get audien
 ces going. All in all\, not to be missed!        (We had almost 150
  people through the doors on a freezing cold winter night all who left hap
 py.) Andrew Punshon\, The Y Theatre\, Leicester  (audience:145)\n\n Many
  thanks indeed for a very special evening at Fleece Jazz. The music was ex
 ceptionally good\, the evening really did swing and the audience left on a
  high.  Milestones also attracted one of the biggest audiences we have se
 en in recent months. It was really good to have not only a big crowd\, but
  also plenty of new faces\, some of whom have been to subsequent gigs and 
 hopefully will become regulars. John Anderson\, Chairman Fleece Jazz\, Suf
 folk (audience:140)\n\nWe are always glad to say how much we appreciated p
 erformances at the theatre and yours was no exception to the our motto "yo
 u only hear the Best of the Best at the Bonington" The size and enthusiasm
  of the audience went along way to confirm that this was a great night out
 . Brian Pearce Nottingham Jazz House\, The Bonnington (audience:120)\n\nMi
 lestones really pulled the crowds in and they were amply rewarded.  A cra
 cking band performance from top UK jazz performers.  Mike Gordon Scarboro
 ugh Jazz (audience:90)\n\nThanks for the great job you and the band did. T
 here have been many plaudits\, for the band\, passed on to us by the audie
 nce.  It was a real shot in the arm for "Jazz in the South" and Portsmout
 h jazz. Dave Brown\, Portsmouth Jazz (audience:110)\n\nThis is a brilliant
  band\, a testament both to the music of Miles Davis and to Terry Seabrook
 's arrangements. 'Milestones' gave us our biggest audience of the entire s
 eason. Annette Keen\, Under Ground Theatre\, Eastbourne (audience:100)\n\n
  We were all delighted at the Milestones performance. The band was very g
 ood and captured the mood of the Miles Davis. The event was near to full c
 apacity and there was a superb atmosphere and we received many favourable
  comments from members of the audience. William Shaw\, Coventry Jazz (audi
 ence:160)\n\nMany of our customers said that it had been one of the best g
 igs\, if not the best\, gig that they’d been to in a long while. From a 
 promoter’s point of view\, Terry Seabrook and the band were a joy to dea
 l with and it was a pleasure to welcome these musicians to our club.   D
 avid Day for Live Jazz in Oxfordshire (audience:110)\n\n Milestones is no
 t only a great sounding ensemble\, but cohesive and exciting to watch. A g
 reat evening's entertainment!   Simon Anckorrn\, Hurst Festival (sellout)
