Davis's second recording since ending his six-year retirement was
one of his best of the 1980s. Unlike his bands from the 1970s, this
particular unit leaves plenty of space and plays much more
melodically. Guitarist Mike Stern lets loose some fury, but
electric bassist Marcus Miller is not reluctant to walk now and
then in a straight-ahead fashion, drummer Al Foster and
percussionist Mino Cinelu are tasteful, and Bill Evans gets in a
few good spots on soprano. As for Davis, he was gradually regaining
his earlier form. This double LP is highlighted by "Back Seat
Betty," a side-long investigation of "My Man's Gone Now" and two
versions of Davis's childlike "Jean Pierre." ~ Scott Yanow
