◇BBC音樂雜誌給予錄音(Recording)&演出(Performance)皆五顆星最高評價！

1991 年 9 月 28 日，邁爾士．戴維斯（Miles Davis）因腦中風辭世，享年 65 歲，一代爵士大師安葬在紐約布朗克斯區的墓園。生涯的最後二十年左右，邁爾士‧戴維斯經歷了宛若重生的另一頁傳奇人生。這位堪稱爵士音樂史最具影響力的小號大師，事業如日中天之際，在上個世紀七○年代開始飽受古柯鹼毒癮危害，霸業一落千丈。戒除毒癮之後，東山再起，力挽頹勢，邁爾士‧戴維斯在1983-84年間巡迴歐洲公演，一吐過去數年來遭受樂評惡意攻擊的鳥氣，不但贏得一致好評，還催生錄製了新專輯「極光」Aura。不過，這張顯然迎合歐洲爵士樂迷品位的專輯，沒有受到多年的唱片合作夥伴CBS 青睞，懷疑它是否能在美國市場吸金。兩造一翻兩瞪眼，邁爾士．戴維斯決定將專輯轉往華納Warner 唱片集團發行。

加入華納的邁爾士．戴維斯，找來他在1981年曾合作過三重奏的貝斯手Marcus Miller，共同打造專輯「圖圖」Tutu，邁爾士．戴維斯運用現代化錄音器材，重現年輕時傲人的才氣和靈感，隔年葛萊美獎也頒了兩項大獎給邁爾士．戴維斯，在他的音樂版圖又樹立了另一個高峰。他們一起合作的電影原聲帶「Siesta」，也收錄在這套「The Last Word 」之中。邁爾士．戴維斯與電影配樂大師米榭．李葛蘭合作的電影原聲帶「Dingo」裡，則可以聽見他與另一位小號手Chuck Findley輪番上陣與管弦樂團聯手的精彩演出。1991年初就已錄製完成的「Doo-Bop」，相隔不到十個月，邁爾士‧戴維斯便過世了，這張1992年才發行的「Doo-Bop 」成了小號大師的最後一張錄音室專輯。

收錄在這套「The Last Word」裡的還包括最能展現靈光乍現動人瞬間的現場專輯「1986年法國《尼斯音樂節》現場演出實況」，演奏會上他吹奏了先前專輯裡改編自Cyndi Lauper的《Time After Time》以及Michael Jackson的《Human Nature》。「蒙特婁音樂會現場」則是邁爾士．戴維斯與天王製作人昆西．瓊斯在1991年7月的現場合作實況，是邁爾士．戴維斯生前的最後一張專輯，當時不但攻占告示牌爵士牌行榜冠軍，也為邁爾士．戴維斯贏來第七座葛萊美獎。「世界巡迴演出精華」收錄了從1988-1991年間邁爾士．戴維斯在世界各地的現場演出中最著名的錄音曲目，同時能讓樂迷一窺其晚年演出樣貌的珍貴選輯。
