Quintet/Sextet is an album which compiles recordings made for Prestige Records on 5 August 1955 by Miles Davis. Credited to "Miles Davis and Milt Jackson", this was an "all-star" session, and did not feature any of the members of Davis's working group of the time (Sonny Rollins, Red Garland, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones). Jackie McLean only plays on his own compositions.
