Miles Davis welcomes Charlie Parker and Sonny Rollins on this 1953 session that includes No Line and In Your Own Sweet Way. I was the engineer on the recording session and I also made the masters for the original LP issue of this album. Since the advent of the CD, other people have been making the masters. Mastering is the final step in the process of creating the sound of the finished product. What added to the success of Collectors’ Items is to how recording engineer Rudy Van Gelder help make the album a success during his stay his with the Prestige label when he added in an interview: Today, I feel strongly that I was their messenger.

Miles Davis (trumpet) Charlie Parker as Charlie Chan, Sonny Rollins (tenor saxophone) Walter Bishop Jr. (piano) Percy Heath (bass) Philly Joe Jones (drums)WOR Studios, NYC, January 30, 1953, (remastered by Van Gelder) Note the presence of Charlie Parker ( Charlie Chan for contractual reasons) on tenor instead of his usual alto, sure-footed but without the hyper-fluidity and faster-pace more normally. Re the hybrid Collectors’ Items album: the 1953 session should never have taken place, as it was bound to fail and the 1956 gives a glimpse of what could have been, if Miles would have developed this particular quintet, or a similar. The just preceding 7014 was far from perfect and personally I prefer the outcome of the session with Sonny.

There are two sessions collected on the album with, apart from Davis, largely different musicians. The second 1956 session is "In Your Own Sweet Way", "Vierd Blues" and "No Line"
