Spīķeri Jazz. Silvesteri Orkesteri and Cannonball Adderley, concert

In the 1950s, Adderley became popular as he worked together with the legendary trumpet player Miles Davis. The albums recorded by both of them, Kind of Blue and Milestones, still can be listed among the best-selling jazz recordings. In the 1960s-1970s, Adderley started new quests including elements of funk and pop music in his repertoire. The pieces Walk Tall and Mercy Mercy Mercy are bright examples. Kārlis Vanags says: "Generally Adderley's music implies much of positivism and humour, which is always reflected in public's positive attitude."
