The record

The credits name a quartet: Miles Davis with John Lewis (2) at the piano, Percy Heath on bass and Max Roach on drums. Two sides for Prestige, 'Tune Up' backed with 'Smooch', pressed on ten-inch shellac in 1954 under catalog 884. A rhythm section of that weight on a two-side 78 is worth the hunt.
