Comment
KSTL-AM radio broadcast
Miles Davis (tpt); John Coltrane (ts); William "Red" Garland (p); Paul Chambers (b); Philly Joe Jones (d); Spider Burks (ann)

The Soulard CD lists the date for this performance as July 21, 1956, but this seems to be wrong. Spider Burks was fired by KXLW-AM on July 11, 1956, two days before the Davis Quintet opened a nine-day gig at Peacock Alley (July 13-21, Friday-Saturday). He was hired by KSTL-AM in August 1956 and quickly began live Saturday matinee broadcasts from Peacock Alley. The Davis Quintet returned to Peacock Alley in February 1957 for a nine-day gig (February 15-23, Friday-Saturday). In all likelihood, then, the Soulard material comes from broadcasts on February 16 and 23, and the correct station is KSTL-AM. Many thanks to Chris DeVito for careful research here.
