Product Details

Vince Wilburn, Jr. has been the keeper of his uncle Miles Davis's flame for decades, and M.E.B. is where that stewardship gets its most direct musical expression. Hearing Ron Carter, Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke, and John Scofield share space on new material is a reminder of how wide Miles cast his net across generations of American music, and how many of the players he touched are still pushing that conversation forward.


M.E.B. (formerly Miles Electric Band) led by Vince Wilburn, Jr collects a progressive All-Star jazz ensemble featuring Miles Davis alumni and the players Miles inspired. This brand new, never-released studio recording captures a multi-generational who’s who of acclaimed artists performing new Miles-inspired compositions. Two tracks of the five on the album include unreleased trumpet performances by Miles and the album, produced by Miles' alumni Lenny White and Wilburn, features music legends including Ron Carter, Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke, Donald Harrison, Darryl Jones, Vernon Reid and John Scofield amongst many others. This album is dedicated to the memory of Wallace Roney and Bernard Wright and contains some of their final recordings. The cover is an original painting from artist and Miles’ associate Mikel Elam.
