At the Newport Jazz Festival in 1955, Davis performed the song '''Round Midnight'' as part of an all-star jam session, with the song's composer Thelonious Monk, along with Connie Kay and Percy Heath of the Modern Jazz Quartet, Zoot Sims, and Gerry Mulligan. Davis's solo received a positive reception from many jazz fans and critics. George Avakian of Columbia Records was in the audience, and his brother Aram persuaded him that he ought to sign Davis to the label. Davis signed with Columbia and formed his ''first great quintet'' with John Coltrane on saxophone. 'Round About Midnight was his first album for the label.
