Contradictory accounts of Miles Davis’ creation of the soundtrack to Louis Malle’s film noir ‘Ascenseur pour l’Echafaud’ have all become part of its legend. Rarely has a soundtrack been so decisive. Nearly seventy years on, beyond the myth, this taut, feverish recording, imbued with extreme dramatic tension, remains one of the Miles’ finest records. The basic outline remains: Jean-Paul Rappeneau suggested to Malle asking Miles Davis to create the film’s soundtrack who agreed to record the music after attending a private screening.
