I don't know of a better-sounding Miles Davis recording and the performance is stellar throughout.

This recording has been bootlegged severally. I recently saw a (digi-pak) version in HMV.
The version here is from Delta 46007/46008 which sounds a little crisper and fuller than the Laserlight version and was issued by Delta Music (www.deltamusic.com).

Bootlegs:
- Miles Davis Live, Delta 46007/8 (covers list “South of France", "Avignon", and "Summer of 1988")
- His Last Concert in Avignon, Laserlight (covers list "July 1988 in Avignon")
- Live in Avignon, 1988 (digi-pak), no date, no label

Miles Davis (tpt, keyb); Kenny Garrett (as, fl); Robert Irving III (synth); Adam Holzman (synth); Joe Foley McCreary (sop el-b, el-b); Darryl Jones* (el-b); Ricky Wellman (dr); Rudy Bird (perc)
