As that box followed the previous year’s Miles 54: The Prestige Recordings 180g 4LP collection, it only seemed logical that we would get the next one in the series this year — and Craft Recordings has made sure of it by releasing the Miles 56: The Prestige Recordings 180g 4LP box set today, June 19, 2026.
